Storytelling Like a CEO    

Jesus told us parables: would a parable help you achieve your vision in business?

About John McKennon

John McKennon has been helping people in healthcare for 40 years: currently connecting buyers and sellers of PPE for the international response to Covid-19.  Previously, he directed data acquisition, aggregation and governance serving brand leadership of an $800,000,000 portfolio of oncology drugs. Throughout his career he has volunteered in Boy Scouts, as an EMT in town and leading corporate medical emergency response teams.  It was humbling to see and then understand just how fragile life is: it was a privilege to work with ambulance crews which brought back 4 stopped hearts with CPR.

John also has experience in divorce and business mediation. Facilitation with storytelling has become a growing passion in him over the last 10 years: first with data, then with brands.  The bible provides many examples of ‘story’ and offers proven approaches to conveying information, creating belief systems and even challenging world views in parables.

The Lord is challenging John now as he works to collaborate on a book: The Positive Side of Crisis.  There will always be miracles, there are always challenges met well and results that exceed expectations, even in crisis.
