    Stories are a universal communication tool that engage all listeners because we relate to stories and can see ourselves within the experiences. But, when stories are used in business settings, we expect them to deliver more. We need stories to be remembered and repeated. That's a challenge. Using stories isn't as easy as it may seem, both in terms of shaping stories to align with business situations and telling stories that are compelling enough to repeat. In this audiobook, Sally solves both challenges by providing insights on the listener's perspective and concrete tools to shape storylines and stories that deliver impact. It takes a three-step formula to reach compelling communication: a clear storyline, memorable stories, and a compelling storyteller. Storylines & Storytelling validates each step of the formula through in-depth research and interviews with hundreds of storytellers. Sally introduces a road map for developing and delivering content that transforms every communicator into a compelling storyteller. ungekürzt.

    Confirmed grump Eddie Valentino placed the ad. Hotshot 20-something Talba Wallis knew exactly how to answer it. And thus was born the dynamic duo of New Orleans private detectives, one cynical, 65-year-old Luddite white dude with street smarts, and one young, bright-eyed, 21st century African-American female poet, performance artist, mistress of disguise, and computer jock extraordinaire. Think Queen Latifah and Danny DeVito. In Louisiana Hotshot, their job is to hunt down a sociopath and pedophile who's molested the 14-year-old daughter of their client, hangs out on the ragged edges of the rap and recording industries, and has more powerful allies than a Cabinet member. But both detectives have unfinished business from the past - in Eddie's case, something he deeply regrets; in Talba's, a personal mystery, one so frightening no one will help her investigate. But she knows she won't sleep till she solves it - and the truth will change her forever. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nan McNamara.

    The three tales that make up Edgar Allan Poe's The Dupin Mysteries introduce us to the cracking character of Chevalier Auguste Dupin. As a rationalist and practitioner of brilliant deduction, he was to become the template for most of the detective fiction that followed speedily in his wake. The first tale, "The Murders in the Rue Morgue", details a form of murder solving that was to become only too familiar. Using his extraordinary intellect, Dupin solves a seemingly baffling crime from the clues left by the perpetrator - clues overlooked by mere mortals like the police. Narrated by his friend and admirer, and documenting an eccentricity that charms the reader into liking what would otherwise be an insufferable arrogance, the stories bear the obvious mark of what was to become the most famous of detectives: Sherlock Holmes. He is very much a Poe creation, with the gore and horror of the murder details described with a relish and a realism not allowed by many other writers. ungekürzt. Language: English.
