For this option, choose a real situation from your own work experience where a team of people needed to work together in order to get something done.

For whatever reason, the group failed to succeed. Now that you will be working as the new leader of the team, you would like to take steps to prevent the same thing from happening again.

For whichever case you chose, complete the following:

Write a professional paper that analyzes the tools leaders can use to build trust and collaboration and explains why you believe storytelling is one effective tool for you to use to lead your team.

In your paper, complete the following:

Analyze the tools leaders can use to build trust and relationships, foster collaboration, and help employees feel engaged with their work.

Identify the specific tools. Explain how each tool can be used. Explain the benefits of each tool. Explain ways in which leaders use storytelling to build trust and relationships.

Provide some examples of times when using storytelling would be effective. Tell a story to your team.

Create a section of your paper where you craft a story to your team which informs them about the past situation, yet inspires them to excellence in the future.

Craft a story that: Describes the past situation and what went wrong. Where did the breakdown in trust happen? Discusses what you have learned from that situation about trust, relationships, communication, collaboration, and any other aspects.

Describes your plan for building trust among the team members. Is well organized and appropriate for your intended audience. When you create this paper you should have a single file that is organized with subheadings and is easy to read and follow.

It should include, at minimum, an introduction, sections on collaboration and trust, a section on storytelling and how it is effect, and then a section that actually tells the story that you, as a leader, would tell your team. If you wish, instead of writing the story portion of this paper, you can create a video or audio recording of it using Capella-supported Kaltura Media or providing your instructor with a YouTube link.

When using Kaltura for your recording, you may record a video or use audio only if you do not have a camera on your computer.
