Storytelling is the hallmark of humanity. Yet, how often do our professional resumes, startup pitches, business cases and customer stories stop – just when they need to continue? And, how frequently do we entrust storytelling – and our professional trajectory – to “someone else,” internal or external to our organization?
When we give ourselves permission to move one millimeter beyond the risk (and comfort) of “how we always tell our stories,” we courageously tell the stories stakeholders really need to hear. The stories which enhance stakeholder and customer experiences and drive stakeholder and customer success and retention.
Babette Ten Haken’s One Millimeter Mindset™ Storytelling Workshops for STEM Professionals and Left Brain Thinkers showcase how understanding your professional purpose, and telling your own story, become the keys to professional innovation, business growth and stakeholder and customer retention.

Title: Create a Storytelling Culture for Your Organization
The tag team of customer experience and revenue generation are everyone’s job responsibilities. However, business and hiring models continue to separate stakeholders. STEM professionals and left brain thinkers fall within cost-center silos. Right brain business professionals dwell within revenue-generator silos. And, who knows where to place the manual workers in your organization? What is the workforce profitability of maintaining that tack?
There is no better way to catalyze cross-functional and cross-educational communication and collaboration than by storytelling. As Babette Ten Haken says: “Depending on where we sit around the table, we ‘see’ the same things, differently. Shouldn’t our differences become our strengths and opportunities to better serve each other, and our customers?” Create an organization-wide storytelling culture as the fulcrum for implementing an innovative human capital strategy.
