Narrative direction for business

What you are,
and what you
manage to tell. My support helps you close that gap.

Corporate communication as narrative direction, not as content production: a way of thinking that safeguards the coherence of the story over time and turns work, processes and people into a lasting asset.

01 · A stance

A narrative direction, faithful to your intent and built to last.

I don't offer you a supply of content, but rather a narrative direction, faithful to your intent and built to last. My proposal is not that of someone who executes projects on request, but rather that of an external narrative director: someone who enters an organization and safeguards the coherence of its communication, from strategy to the coordination of the supply chain and teams.

The method presents itself as a principle, not as a catalogue of techniques: narrative responsibility, truth and long-term sustainability. This principle rests on the coexistence of several approaches, from the documentary method to the Cammino dell'Antieroe. In my view consulting is, first of all, a way of thinking about storytelling.

02 · The path

A relationship that grows.It starts with a conversation and runs through design, coordination, production and distribution.

The door

Narrative audit

analysis · diagnosis · proposal

A close look at the current state of your communication, across the whole system or a single project. I listen to the context, interpret what lies beneath the story that needs telling, and give back analysis and direction. It is the first step.

The making

Project direction

website · trade fairs · reports · video system

After the diagnosis, the work takes shape. The story is set upstream and its coherence is safeguarded all the way to distribution, directing those who execute or producing it first-hand. What matters is that the project truly tells your reality and that it keeps doing so over time.

The meaning

The meaning of the enterprise

the civic and cultural role

When the company tells who it is, not what it sells: projects with a civic and cultural dimension, where communication leaves the product behind and takes on value. A story approached and offered with respect for people and facts, far from being a cold image-building tool.

The oversight

Direction, over time

the ongoing relationship

The relationship can extend to all the communication needs of the company, in the form of a direction that stays, reports to leadership, coordinates the supply chain and teams, and oversees every project.

Becoming, where the need arises, the company's communication direction: an external and ongoing function, the destination of a path of growth and mutual trust.

03 · The method, in practice

First we analyze:then we name, then we give back. In that order, every time.

Listening to the context on site
Phase one

Listening to the context

We enter the company, listen to its people, observe its fabric, gather the existing materials. We look before we judge: communication is not designed from the outside, but rather from within what the company truly is.

Narrative reading of the materials
Phase two

Narrative reading

We analyze what is there in the light of the story: what the company says about itself, how it says it, where there is coherence and where a fracture. This is where the distance emerges between what the company is and what it manages to communicate.

Giving the work back
Phase three

Giving back, with rationale

We report what we have seen, in person and in a document: the diagnosis, the direction proposed, the next steps. No prepackaged recipes: a reasoned direction that always explains the why behind each choice.

04 · How it begins

From a reading:not from a quote. The decision always stays with you.

1

Write

Even a few lines. I need to understand where your company stands and what you feel is not working.

2

Conversation

Thirty, forty minutes to read the context and the need. No commitment and no pitch.

3

Audit

If it makes sense, we start by reading: the current state of the communication, with diagnosis and direction.

4

The relationship grows

From diagnosis to project, from project to oversight. One step at a time, as far as it is needed.

People on the threshold looking beyond
To begin

A dialogue, no commitment and no pitch.

Let's talk about the state of your company's story, about what it wants to say and what it manages to bring out. From there we will see whether there is a path to take together.
