Business Storytelling: Some Unsuspected Genres

There’s no need to feel restricted to the three-minute narrative non-fiction anecdote, or fictional parable, delivered in a keynote, pep talk, or in a business book.

There are other genres of business storytelling, ones you might not even associate with business. Such as:

The short story or serial in text on your site or Facebook page

The video serial (via TV spots, short videos on YouTube or elsewhere)

The documentary (long or short form)

The cartoon (single panel or strip)

The short fictional film

The graphic novel

The novella

The poem

The live event

Music

Living history

Diorama

And then, of course, there’s the mixed grill of transmedia storytelling: taking a single story and turning it into an entire world spread out across several genres and media platforms.

But what have I missed? 

What genres not listed here are you telling your story in?
