“Stories constitute the single most powerful weapon in a leader’s arsenal,” says Dr. Howard Gardner of Harvard University. It underscores the importance of using storytelling as a leadership tool that spans real estate business owners like us. Because human beings are hardwired for stories, leaders who tell great stories are able to inspire and develop a deeper connection with employees and lead more effectively.
