Developing your Core Story

Become a Thought Leader within your field and get instant acknowledgement for the work you do

With a clear, sharp, and short core story, it becomes much easier to brand your department internally. Knowing which story to tell about your work – and doing it in 30 seconds – ensures that your team or your department gets acknowledgement for the work they are doing. You’ll find endorsements and resources come easier too. In the past 10 years, I have helped several departments in big companies such as Novo Nordisk and Microsoft find their Core Story. The impact has always been greater than both they and I had imagined.

The core story has made it easier to explain what we do powerfully. We earn others’ respect much faster. We have integrated the core story into our strategic framework and in our behavioural targets. The process involved everyone in the management team and aligned our management team and unit around our purpose and values.

This Service

If you are looking for a catchy tagline formulated by a PR company, then ask ChatGPT to formulate it. My approach is to involve the management team/specialists team in developing the core story. I will ensure that we end up with a short and sharp core story that everyone feels great ownership for – and therefore are proud to communicate actively to the rest of the organisation.

A process often includes:

  • 2-3 sessions held with the group of managers/experts

  • Interviews with end-users

  • Thought Leader Communication Training

Practicalities
