In this episode, we discuss the book The Power of Myth by Joseph Campbell and take on the challenge to try and distil it into a central message of #8wordsorless. The book is vast in scope, covering the themes and symbols of ancient narratives and how these continue to bring meaning to our lives, offering lessons that can be applied to leadership today.
We talk about the power of storytelling, and how leaders can, and should, utilise this to communicate a vision and inspire their teams. Samie also talks about Campbell’s famous concept of ‘Follow your Bliss’ before touching upon the monomyth, and the dragons that need to be slayed if we are to ‘be the hero of your journey’.
