Great post Harold, I completely agree with your thesis and further would like to understand why peopl in orgs don't embrace this. In so many orgs there are abundant tools to help narrate and share. However being truly collaborative and social rarely happens. I suggest the element of fear plays a major part in people's reticence. The openness of collaborating and being social can lead people's first thoughts of coping with their vulnerablity. As collaborative leaders we need to help people see the positive stories / narrations that can emerge, or indeed what journey people have been on to manage that vulnerability. We've still lots to learn and that excites me.
