Business Novels
Way back in the early days of this blog, I wrote about the new (to me) concept of the business novel and one I discovered while at a conference.
Barbara Fillip of Knowledge for Development, LLC, has recently written about business novels and provided a helpful list of examples. She had had the idea of using a business novel in a training/consulting situation: "We were looking for something innovative, not just another toolkit or cookbook and so I suggested that we develop a fictional country with fictional characters and a plot." The idea didn't fly with the powers that be, but she still feels it's a good idea. I do, too, and would love to use a business novel with college students someday.
