Storytelling

Be dramatic!

Conflict is at the heart of every great story.

Something must prevent your hero from getting what they want.

This creates drama, and drama creates human interest.

Without conflict, your story gives us no reason to care.  




Creativity

Practice, practice, practice

Creativity is born from practice.

Few writers can write an award-winning novel on their first try.

It takes time, patience and effort.

The more you immerse yourself in creative practice, the more prepared you are for future success.

Leadership

Conflict resolution

The sooner you accept conflict, the better leader you become.

The best leaders possess strong communication skills, allowing them to create an open and safe space for all parties involved to express their concerns and perspectives.
