What Makes Your Organisation Special?

September 25, 2019

Top talent doesn’t join your organisation because of the strength of your balance sheet. They do so because they connect with your story. Great companies have a great story.

Connecting with your story

With the wide and ever-fractious divisions in the political sphere, “the corporation” is our best (only?) hope for building true community. This, in turn, naturally leads us to the challenge of “organisation culture.”

Top talent doesn’t join your organisation because of the strength of your balance sheet. They do so because they connect with your story. Customers, similarly, may buy (initially) because of your value proposition but loyalty rests in the extent to which they feel at one with your story. Retaining outstanding employees, expecting people to go the extra mile and responding to crisis all draw, in no small measure, on the power of your story.

Great companies have a great story. Always! No less important, they know how to share that story.
