Territorial Games: Understanding and Ending Turf Wars at Work (1997) and A Safe Place for Dangerous Truths (1999). Annette consults with organizations who want to use storytelling to improve communication, culture, and quality. Her new research draws from an ever-growing collection of true stories told by powerful women that reveal how feminine narratives about power, control, and decision-making criteria differ from masculine interpretations. Her next book Women and Power: the Power to Protect will illustrate the critical role of female narratives as well as offer a coherent way to blend male and female narratives in the workplace.
