Ask the founders: Tell me about that moment which motivated you to start the organization. Or about a problem that you couldn’t solve that led you to start this organization. Or about an experience that compelled you to conceive this organization. If it’s your own company: Tell me about that moment when you clearly knew you had to open your own business. Or about an experience you had earlier in life that led you to create this organization. If your organization has been around for a long time: If no one recalls how it started, dig into archives and old newspaper clippings. If you work for a government agency: The founding story may be buried in legislative materials or the creation of a law. Go find that stuff and piece together the story. If you can, interview those who may have been involved at the time. If the company has completely reinvented itself: Tell me about the event or situation that was a key turning point in the organization. For existing products and services: Figure out who was responsible for their creation. Tell me about the situation, or series of situations, that caused you to invent XYZ. If you’re working on a new offering or innovation: Keep track of what sparked the effort. Then craft a story about it. [Name and Definition]

If you’re an entrepreneur: Talk to your customers. Pull the stories out of them by saying: Tell me about a significant success you were able to achieve with the assistance that you received. If you have customers, members, patients, clients, and so on: Draw out testimonials and thank yous and turn them into success stories. You may need to re-contact these individuals for more input. If your organization has been around for several years: Go back into the archives and search for past successes that no one is talking about anymore. They are timeless. Craft stories around them and make them visible. They may be just the spark that’s needed internally to motivate a stalled team and externally to boost sales. If you have long-tenured employees: Have them tell you about a memorable success that they helped create. Or a situation that was highly successful that didn’t get enough air time. Or about a rock star employee sparking a significant business success. If you have sales professionals: Ask for their favorite success stories — the ones that turn prospects into buyers.
