How can you develop a culture of storytelling at your organization?
Four quick tips:
1. Meetings: get into the habit of starting each meeting with a story. Ask for others to share stories.
2. Contests: you might have an “employee of the month” contest: why not try a “employee story of the month” contest?
3. Channels: if you use Slack or Team, open a channel to capture and collect stories.
4. Conferences: when you go to conferences, go with the intention of collecting industry and other stories you hear.
