One way to help people remember their stories is with pictures. Viv McWaters lent me her Visual Explorer cards which is box of photographs illustrating a vast array of scenes: camels at sunset, scrunched up drawing, sparrow landing on a hand to feed, long corridor, football scrum.
If you want to elicit stories around the theme of, say. leadership simply spread the cards face up on a table (or the floor) and say, “today we are focussed on the issue of leadership. Take a look at these pictures and pick up the one that grabs your attention and reminds you of something that happened in relation to leadership.”
Everyone picks up a card. Then you go around the group asking them to recount the experience that was triggered by the picture. You will be amazed at the depth and variety of the stories you collect.
