We've talked on this podcast about how L&D professionals can use storytelling techniques to create more engaging, memorable learning experiences. But what about the stories we tell ourselves every day? How do these stories shape our identity at work?

This week on the Good Practice Podcast, Ross D and Owen are joined by Simon Arrowsmith, founder of Grow the People, to discuss:

• the relationship between storytelling and wellbeing
• the role that stories can play in helping us adapt to life under lockdown
• the ways L&D can incorporate storytelling into their working practices
