He brings the audience right up to the crucial leadership moment in the story, and then engages the audience interactively to propose possible solutions. Finally, he compares the participants’ ideas to the real decisions and outcomes of the moment and analyses the resulting themes. The result: lessons that managers can apply to their own situations in a practical way.[/expand]
