Once upon a Milestone: unleashing narrative power for impactful project leadership

What if your next project wasn't just a plan - but a story worth telling?In a world full of roadmaps, reports, and retrospectives, many projects move... but never arrive. Teams deliver - but don't transform. Meetings multiply - but rarely mean something.Once Upon a Milestone is a guide for project managers who want more than just delivery - they want coherence, momentum, and meaning.

It offers a practical yet poetic approach to:

• Using storytelling for project managers
• Leading teams with emotional intelligence
• Turning stuck initiatives into new narratives
• Making milestones matter again
