Most arguments and points that describe the quality of training programs demonstrate that narrative art plays a central role in the discourses and practices of training and change. The paper we propose supports an enthusiastic viewpoint that aims to reveal few basic guidelines of a plea for narrative art and a set of reasons supporting the importance of developing narrative intelligence through training programs for trainers. Throughout the paper we address few possible interrogations:
What is a story/narration that calls for an action? What goals could be aimed by including a story/narration in a training session? What is narrative intelligence? What is known about narrative intelligence? How can it be developed/improved? Is narrative intelligence only a useful communication tool, or can it be used as an evaluation criteria for the effectiveness of all forms of communication directed to action? How to insert narration in a training session? How can you call to action using the art of narration? Is there a secret language of the trainer? How can it be cultivated? What other functions/roles can perform stories/narration used in a training session?
In this paper I want to describe some of the properties of a world of “reality” constructed according to narrative principles and their force to act in educational space. In doing so, I have gone back and forth between describing narrative mental “powers” and the symbolic systems of narrative discourse that make the expression of these powers possible. It is only a beginning. My objective has been merely to lay out the ground plan of narrative realities and possible ways to develop narrative intelligence to teachers. | Keywords
