What Do Pat Riley and Steven Spielberg have in common?

Guest post by: Keith Ferrazzi

Article Overview: What do Deepak Chopra, Pat Riley, and Steven Spielberg have in common? They’re all great storytellers, and it’s dramatically influenced each of their success. Also, they're just a few of the fascinating characters that come together in Peter Guber’s new business book Tell to Win: Connect, Persuade and Triumph with the Hidden Power of Story. The book is as entertaining (I actually couldn’t put it down) as it is informative and transformative.

What Do Pat Riley and Steven Spielberg have in common?

What do Deepak Chopra, Pat Riley, and Steven Spielberg have in common? They're all great storytellers, and it's dramatically influenced each of their success. Also, they're just a few of the fascinating characters that come together in Peter Guber's new business book Tell to Win: Connect, Persuade and Triumph with the Hidden Power of Story. The book is as entertaining (I actually couldn't put it down) as it is informative and transformative.

On the blog today, I have a clip from the interview I did with Peter - hear how the story of ham radio launched Peter's career. If you didn't already know, he produced films such as Batman, Rain Man, Gorillas in the Mist, Flashdance, and The Color Purple - and that's just a thin slice of his professional resume. If you order Peter's book now, before the March 1 on-sale date, you'll get a digital gift bag full of leadership, marketing and social media resources - including the 30-minute interview between Peter and me about Tell to Win.

I've got a few more links on the blog to prior articles I've written on Peter's storytelling methodology. It's great stuff, and changed the way I approach my leadership. In the comments, I'd love to hear how you're using the power of story to "emotionally transport," as Peter would say, the people whose POV is critical to your success.

Stop by and visit - and order Peter's book while you're at it!

Warmest,

Keith
