Example Reflection – Storytelling      Challenge & Selection    According to a study by Thomas Ahrens , all fast growing companies have a very strong corporate culture   shared by all their employees . ( Thomas Ahrens “ High Growth Соmpanies : Driving the Tiger ” )   Our company , the fastest growing mobile telecom company in Russia , is no exception .    We are proud of our strong corporate culture , our mission , strategy and the key values .   The company has developed a special one - day training course , mandatory for all employees , in order to   help them to adapt and appreciate the corporate culture . This training is not run by professional trainers   but by senior managers who have been working in the company for a long time and can tell a lot of   interesting facts about its history from their own experiences .    We call these people Ambassadors . During the training , a trainer uses a storytelling tool , giving   a lot of   examples of how we live our core value in order to explain the mission , strategy and the company values   to the participants . I ’m very proud to be entrusted with the honour of being an Ambassador of   corporate values .   And here I want to refer to   Cameron Smith in the section “ Storytelling Tool ” of our course : « Every great   brand has a story and that story connects to the emotions , the characters , the values of the people » .   StoryTelling is « about the connection that we give to people about a piece of information that we 're   trying to share . A good story at its essence , is simply conveying a message that has logic ” .      Application    The training script has a lot of common examples but each trainer adds something from his / her own   experience . There are many great examples of absolutely incredible achievements .   But unfortunately , when the growth speed is fast we are bound to make mistakes .   I want to tell the story from my own experience which I use as an example to illustrate the value   “ Openness ” .   One of the items is “ Share your experience , knowledge and skills ” .   It ’s nice and easy to talk about your achievements but telling about your mistakes , so the others can   avoid them , requires more courage .   My story . Some years ago , the company was expanding fast to the regions and opening new branches in   different cities . I was in charge of setting up customer service departments . During the launch of the   first company I used to record all our mistakes and missteps . The list was quite long . When we were   launching the second one , I gave this list to my colleagues and we managed to avoid all these mistakes .   But we added some new ones to the list . The launch of the third branch went much easier and the rest   were opened without a hitch .   When I told this story at the training , from the reaction of the participants , who started sharing similar   experiences , I understood how important was to tell about this particular aspect of the value .     Insight & Approach    The company values stay the same but the script of the training is being revised from time to time .   I ’m a part of the working group which is charge of these changes . In the team , we ’ve decided to add a   point that we should n’t be afraid of telling about mistakes helping our colleagues to avoid it . We ’ve also   made a constantly increasing bank of stories that can be used at the training as the examples of living   company values . So storytelling is a powerful instrument which helps us to ensure a visual and deep   understanding of company values which are in its DNA . Nothing illustrates this better than the words by   Cameron Smith “ If you can raise the level of engagement in your business , you will do wonders to your   performance . And storytelling allows you to create energy and passion and excitement around   something ” . 

 This course has made me take a fresh look at storytelling tool which can be used in all areas , especially   where the situations are human centered .
