  An excellent narrative is remembered by everyone. Regardless of the subject matter, good tales stick with us, whether we hear them on the radio, read about them in the newspaper, or watch them unfold on live television. A good story can be pretty compelling when recounted by a great storyteller. Effective storytellers can captivate their audience, guide them in whichever direction they need, and leave listeners/readers with new information to absorb and a value to carry with them.There's an old adage that people who tell stories are the ones who dominate the world. Whether you're pitching an investor, conducting a meeting, or introducing a new initiative, storytelling should be at the heart of everything you do as a team. Even a phone chat with a potential client entails some form of narrative. You may connect with customers, engage with colleagues, and even start a movement by using the power of storytelling.People often believe that learning a lesson through observation is less painful than learning through experience. When we share and embrace our failures, we assist others in overcoming their own challenges. The story can invest a concept with meaning and emotions in a way that plain writing cannot. People are drawn to stories because they can grasp a concrete object. Stories elicit emotions and motivate people to act.Speeches, presentations, workshops, and even board meetings can all benefit from the use of storytelling. Don't forget about it; it's been one of humanity's most valuable abilities since the dawn of communication.

  Knead to Know - A History of Baking

  In Knead to Know: A History of Baking, food historian and chef Neil Buttery takes the reader on a journey exploring the creation, evolution and cultural importance of some of our most beloved baked foods, whether they be fit for a monarch's table, or served from the bakestone of a lowly farm labourer. This book charts innovations, happy accidents and some of the most downright bizarre baked foods ever created.
  
  Everything has a history, but food history is special because it tells so much about our culture and society, our desires and our weaknesses, from the broad sweep of bread creating human civilisation to the invention of the wedding cake, the creation of the whisk, the purpose of the fish heads in a star-gazy pie, or the fact that mince pies used to be meaty.
  
  When we think of the evolution of something, we think every step is an improvement, an incremental elevation toward some peak of perfection as technology improves. This is not always the case. Sometimes things have to become simpler, sometimes knowledge is lost and skills forgotten. As a baker of historical foods, Neil Buttery demonstrates that forgotten recipes and traditional techniques are worth trying out (and mention a few that should perhaps be left in the past).
  
  The reader will be inspired by the characters, creations and inventions of the past to be better and more adventurous bakers.

  All courses of an Italian meal are also covered in separate lists in the appendix, from popular starters like drinks and appetizers to dessert; learn how to pronounce the names of various meats, fish, fruits and vegetables, side dishes, and of course Italian coffees and wines.
