STORIES

Stories are very powerful ways to share knowledge as the narratives also enable to share more tacit aspects of knowledge, norms and values. They help to better understand each other’s perspective and will contribute to building trust and commitment within the consortium and BUSLeague stakeholder networks.

Therefore, all BUSLeague consortium meetings started with one of the partners telling a story, preferably in relation to something they experienced with a worker, retailer or producer as part of this project. This was used to trigger discussions between the partners on the meaning of the story in relation to their own context, their perspective on the story and lessons learned in relation to the BUSLeague objectives. Aside from prompting and pushing knowledge sharing subsequent to the live telling of the story, the discussions should help to identify how BUSLeague could be meaningful for similar challenges as described in the story.

Below you can find the nine stories told by BUSLeague project partners. In addition, in Deliverable 5.5 you can find the supporting materials used to prepare and evaluate these stories.
