William had never felt fear before. He had just been promoted to President of the company that had grown dramatically over the past three years and they were not ready for this rapid expansion. While he felt confident that he was the best qualified for this position, he lost sleep thinking of all the leadership challenges his people were expecting him to fix. He saw himself in the image of the Greek Titan Atlas holding up the globe. He was going to need help.
The good news is William was not afraid to ask for help, and had a mentor he could turn to for that assistance. His mentor happened to be a career army officer who had developed a simple, powerful, proven model for developing leaders in the business world. He titled it BRAVE-fitting for an army guy.

Now any executive can easily use proven techniques of telling a great story employed by Hollywood, Madison Avenue, and Wall Street by employing six simple steps to storytelling to attract the right candidates and properly train them on your company culture.
These stories must be true case studies but told in a certain way. The process starts with understanding your core values.

In his own way, Gretzky was very much an entrepreneur as he "created" a new form of hockey play that didn't depend on size or brute strength. Moreover, he didn't just dream of different ways of excelling at the sport-he acted on it, and brilliantly so
