Stories are memorable, actionable, and emotional. We are constantly making sense of the world by forming stories, and that makes them perfect for instructional design. Instructional Story Design is a practical guide to writing and developing stories for training. It takes what you already know about a story’s power to connect with people and offers a clear methodology for the otherwise daunting process of creating a compelling story. Master story designer Rance Greene shares his powerful yet familiar process to discover, design, and deliver instructional stories. He presents the two essential elements that must be present to tell a story for training: relatable characters and strong conflict. These elements create a desire for resolution and grab learners’ attention. This book offers advice for unearthing the root of the performance problem, creating action lists for learners, and convincing stakeholders about the effectiveness of stories. Case studies from household companies such as Pizza Hut, Southwest Airlines, and PepsiCo show story design in action. Job aids and resources include an audience profile questionnaire, character description worksheet, storyboard template, and tips for developing stories using graphics, audio, and video. With this book, you’ll: Sharpen your analysis skills to discover potential training stories. Design relatable stories that concretely connect with learning objectives. Easily develop captivating stories with tools you already own. Plan your next steps to implement your instructional story. Review: Recommend - Good layout Review: Awesome for all levels! - As a hopeful Instructional Designer I found this book to be crafted seamlessly! True to story telling form, you follow Dayna, an instructional designer that is learning about the world of crafting corporate training through storytelling. The book comes with valuable graphic organizers you can download and reference in the back of the book for the built in practice activities. Rance was crafty when writing the plot of Dayna's story and the content to sync with each other. Not only do you get the nitty gritty valuable content, but you see it applied with Dayna's story as an example, and your given practice and thoughtful reflection with each new portion of content. The book itself is a prime example of learning through story. I am SO excited to learn more about the art of storytelling and using the methods described in Instructional Story Design. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #372,827 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #309 in Leadership Training #384 in Business & Organizational Learning #676 in Education Administration (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 119 Reviews | ## Images ![Instructional Story Design: Develop Stories That Train - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81kYX6ERudL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Recommend *by J***5 on February 23, 2026* Good layout ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome for all levels! *by V***A on June 3, 2020* As a hopeful Instructional Designer I found this book to be crafted seamlessly!
