Want to Change the World? Define Your Organization's Attitude | Just Story It | Scoop.it

get your strategy, posture and culture aligned as a first step on the way to changing the world.


Got a story? How about an attitude? Or does your story express your attitude? Is your attitude part of  your story?


Turns out you need both. Well, that makes sense actually. The stories that stand out the most -- that aren't an expression of bland-land -- are those that do have an attitude.


Now that doesn't mean to say that attitude is all about the 'in your face' kind. It means that you have a defined personality that imbues all you do.


Check out this article to understand the attitudes of Coca-Cola, Apple, Red Cross and Ritz-Carlton and how those play out as dynamics in their cultures and strategies.


No matter if you are an enteprise, entreprenuer, or non-profit, there are definite insights here you can use.

The Power of Story in Business Analysis

The Power of Story in Business Analysis | Just Story It | Scoop.it
From www.batimes.com - June 23, 2012 9:07 AM

Tell me if you’ve heard this one before – you’re on a project that was thrust on your stakeholder groups from high above.  They were insufficiently consulted during the problem definition phase, and they are now questioning everything during implementation. These stakeholders can’t get the project to be outright cancelled, but they can cause it to be ultimately unsuccessful if they don’t commit to putting their time and energy into ensuring that the solution being developed is appropriately used.


Sound familiar? It sure does to me! 


So what is a leader, manager, consultant to do? Add stories into the mix.


I like this article because it directly addresses the difficulties of project management, enrolling people to your cause, and how stories can be one of the remedies applied.


The author includes 3 steps to shift the situation and get your projects back on track. If you are stuck -- read this. 


And if you consult with others, tuck this list in your back pocket to keep your clients & project on track.
