Esther Choy

Are you a sage on the stage—or a guide on the side? Good leaders are one. Great leaders are both. 
In a market crowded with books about how to tell your story better, Winning Without Persuading offers a breakthrough approach: leadership storytelling built on uncovering the hidden stories that change everything. Esther Choy turns conventional business storytelling on its head, showing that the real power of story in leadership isn’t only about spotlighting yourself—it’s also about uncovering the overlooked moments, the unseen truths, and the stories waiting inside others that can elevate teams, energize cultures, and drive transformational outcomes. 
At the heart of Choy’s approach is what she calls the T² principle: Transaction × Transformation.

These approaches, while proven effective on a larger scale, can be adapted to suit the unique needs of smaller businesses. This book reveals how to make those strategies both accessible and impactful.With 40 percent of workers actively seeking new opportunities, the competition for talent is fiercer than ever.
