The Power of Leadership Metaphors: 200 Prompt to Stimulate Your Imagination and Creativity

by Peter Shaw

A metaphor can stimulate your imagination and allow you to think afresh about an issue. It can help you crystalise what you want to do next. Reflecting on a problem using a metaphor can help you unblock your thinking and open up the possibility of new solutions. A metaphor that is memorable allows an idea to stick in the memory and be a constant reminder that there is a way forward which may differ to the route you had originally anticipated. This book explores 200 metaphors that have rung true for leaders in very different contexts. Each metaphor is explored through an illustration and brief prompts for thought. Metaphors explored include: The seed has to die, Life is not a dress rehearsal, The light at the end of the tunnel, Bottling the positives, Look beyond the end of your nose, Allowing your imagination to play with each metaphor opens up the possibility of new insights which can surprise and enthuse you.
