“To start a culture change
all we need to do is two
simple things:
1. Do dramatic storyworthy things that
represent the culture we
want to create. Then let
other people tell stories
about it.
2. Find other people who
do story-worthy things
that represent the culture
we want to create. Then
tell stories about them”
Peter Bregman, Harvard
