A $40 million plane blows up in a fireball with, I think, 14,000 pounds of fuel. And then... They're parachuting down and have to maneuver their parachutes so they don't land in the fireball. What was interesting, he talked through that narrative, the internal narrative, and then how he navigated through that, and then how he came back from that to fly again.

A lot of people wouldn't be able to fly again. He took ownership, even though he was mostly not at fault. What was interesting, though, is I posted about that on LinkedIn. It was the highest true engagement of any post I've ever had on LinkedIn because what was fascinating is person after person from across decades who have known him.

came and commented on who he was as a leader, how they owed him for what he'd taught them, or people within the nonprofit that he works in telling just remarkable stories about who he was as a leader. And so this wasn't him saying, how do I burnish my executive brand? And how do I tell this story that positions me as a thought leader? It was him telling this very raw and vulnerable story.

It was also the fact that he lived in those moments. He led in those moments across his career, even when no one was watching or seemingly no one was watching. But because he had the guts to tell this story in that environment, that opened up for people to come and share these perspectives that gave him an opportunity to hear those things that he might never have heard.

So that's what sparked that. But I would say those are the two tools is one that future visioning and then the other is the 360 piece.

Yeah. So I think some of it is what will people take on? And so for some of my clients talking to three or four people, that might be a lot for them. But on the flip side, I'm actually working with a founder named Dr. Tammy Wang. So she used to be the VP of machine learning and analytics at Korn Ferry and her co-founder is a leadership development professor at Columbia.

And so we're actually taking my storytelling frameworks and the first one we're doing is Atomic 360 and we're putting it on their AI leadership development platform. So it'll give you a tool where you could actually do that at scale. And so stay tuned on that. So I'll definitely share that with you so that you could go to 50 or 100.

But yeah, I think absolutely if somebody wants to do that and can do that, I think that's amazing. There could also be the danger with people can give us feedback based on the version of us. So if we're living by a particular narrative and we're presenting in the world based on that narrative, people could actually end up reinforcing that narrative that needs to change.

I had a client recently when I met with one of his 360 interviewees, highly successful businessman, phenomenal. And what I actually realized is What my client's internal narrative was had been shaped by an interaction that he had with this friend and business leader years ago.

And what this business leader had done is he'd actually projected his narrative on my client and kind of infected his narrative. And so my client took that on and it created significant discontent and shifted his trajectory based on that.
