As a leader, do you have a consistent public and private message? Do you say one thing in public but a different thing in private to your close associates? No leader has the amenity of making a promise in a vacuum. According to Big Fish PR, here are a few ways to stay on message and create a consistent company narrative: (https://bigfishpr.com/6-ways-to-stay-on-message-and-create-a-consistent-company-narrative/) 1. Prioritize and focus on a central message - What are the values, mission, and goals that will drive your application? Knowing your priorities will help focus your message. 2. Get ahead of developing stories or rumors - It's important to know what concerns and issues the group may have...and what misinformation may be floating around, so you can address it. 3. Don't get distracted by extraneous details - If you get sidetracked from your message when answering questions or developing plans, prioritize reframing your answers so they fall under your message. Leaders often struggle to keep the message aligned and the narrative on point. But if you consistently make strides to have a consistent and complimentary message, your organization can only benefit from this strategy. Leave me a comment about your thoughts on how to have a consistent corporate narrative and please watch the short video about the importance of a leader to stay on point with his or her messaging. Is bigger always better?
If you are bigger, stronger, and tougher than your competition, does that give you an advantage? In evolutionary biology, we have Cope's Rule, which was named after American paleontologist, Edward Drinker Cope. Cope's Rule states that species evolve to get bigger bodies over time because there is a competitive advantage to being big. But big has its own drawbacks, and can often lead to the species becoming extinct. So the same forces that exhort a group to become larger, can also force it into elimination. While Cope's Law describes the lifecycle of a species, it also applies to companies and even industries. The Blockbuster Video company went from the mainstay of how people watched movies outside the theater, to a company with only one remaining store (in Bend, Oregon), due to the rise in streaming services like Netflix and Hulu. The film photography industry went from being the core of how people captured precious moments, to a niche hobby, due to the convenience of digital photography. While being bigger certainly has advantages for companies, ensuring that an organization or industry also continues to evolve and improve will help safeguard its long-term sustainability and viability. Leave me a comment about your thoughts on how organizations can not only get bigger but also how important it is to continue to evolve. |
