Drama comes from stories. Conscious leaders make a clear and constant distinction between facts and stories.

Drama comes from stories. Conscious leaders make a clear and constant distinction between facts and the stories they make up about the facts.

Conscious leaders know that facts are not the cause of upset or drama.

Facts don’t cause stress.

Drama and stress are caused by stories, and stories are made up. We are the story maker.

Conscious leaders make sure that all facts are out on the table and then they encourage the expression of stories.

They create a culture where stories (opinions, judgments, beliefs) are all welcome.

They also create a culture where it is understood that stories are made up by the story maker and that they are not true.
