b"If you're a human being you are a storyteller. Stories are the human operating system.\\n\\nIn this episode you'll learn that stories are not just useful for transferring knowledge or communicating results. They can also be used as a tool to explore, understand and co-create.\\n\\nMary Alice Arthur proudly calls herself a story activist. She's on a mission to help people and organisations find the stories that make them flourish.\\n\\nIt's hard to deny that stories and storytelling are getting a lot of attention these days. According to Mary Alice this is primaly due to the fact that stories have the power to evoke emotions and therefor influence people.\\n\\nBut there's more to stories that just using them to influence. Stories are also about collective sensemaking and wholing.\\n\\nI really hope this episode with Mary Alice will inspire you to think about how you can use stories to design better service!\\n\\nP.S.
