The Story That Outweighs the Slide
Facts convinced. A founder’s story committed.
The Story
In Riyadh, two vendors tied on price. One leader told a 90-second origin story; how this product protects a father’s legacy. The room shifted from cost to character; he won on trust, not features.
Cultural Principle
Narrative signals integrity. In relationship-first cultures, a credible story frames the numbers with meaning.
Takeaway
Open with a brief, sincere origin or client moment. Keep it human, not heroic. Then place your data within that story.
Until tomorrow,
