I have seen it before. So have you. A disconnect:

• with your people

• with your stakeholders in your market

• with your prospects and customers

• with your board

And most important of all, you have compartments within you that are silos of excellence but are not integrated into a highly compelling story of you.

We invited Chris Hare, the Founder and Principal of The Storied Future, to our Podcast to discuss his journey in creating a story for himself, his company, and those he serves.

This portion of his quote next to his picture, above, grabbed me:

“I have the privilege of working with values-driven C-Suite leaders who have the audacity to believe they can bend the future to their will.”

We discuss what “values-driven” means as well as “bend the future to their will”, and why they are both key in creating a storied future personally and professionally.

Chris is highly transparent. It is because of the psychic pain he experienced that he was able to use this as a powerful transformational tool for others.

As the founder of The Sage Group, a value transformation firm, I know how powerful “story” is in building a successful company. This is more than marketing. This is an existential and strategic tool for those that dare to think they can change the world.

Enjoy this Great Conversation.
