"All members of the legal community-lawyers, judges, legislators-must
confront the stories that the law constructs and authenticates and
"accept greater responsibility for the legal realities we help to
establish when we tell or accept one legal story rather than another."

Storytelling enables the individuals in an organization to see
themselves and the organization in a different light, and accordingly
take decisions and change their behavior in accordance with these new
perceptions, insights and identities." (Steven Denning)

"Identity is formed by social processes. Once crystallized, it is
maintained, modified, or even reshaped by social relations . . .
Conversely, the identities produced by the interplay of individual
consciousness and social structure react upon the given social
structure, maintaining it, modifying it, or even reshaping it" (Berger
and Luckman)
