Find your new insights hidden in the stories around you.
Story Shaping
A big moment requires a big story.
With growth, your old story can lose its luster. There is a value in having an expert eye that can unlock new life hidden in your organization.
We will discover, develop, share and co-create the new story that illuminates your key insights.
The outcome will be a greater story, built from a collection of treasured insights, anecdotes, and working metaphors that you can deliver when you need them.
An Iterative Approach
Intake
Through a series of interviews, we will do a 360 degree study of your storytelling: for your brand, in your leadership, in social media and any other messaging. We'll look for the best stories and storytellers, gathering a sense of who you are and why customers and team members value your brand. We'll look for the most valuable insights and metaphors. And exploring through both a customer and leadership lens, we will dive into your origins, your impacts and your visions.
Distillation
We will iterate along the way, testing that one core story that connects all of your stories. And as we go, we’ll punch up and organize your greater collection of stories that illuminate your values and your value. At the end, either through a workshop, Legend experience, or the written word, we’ll hand you a transformational story that will connect all of your stories.
