Re-telling the Story of Work...

About us

We believe that the standard ‘networking’ format can have the tendency to feel like a work or sales pitch, so we put together a small team earlier this year and founded WorkStory. It aims instead to bring people/businesses and their personal stories to the forefront, primarily focusing around our three ‘Story Theme’ pillars of Leadership, Equality/Diversity, and Sustainability, and their interaction with local communities.

    I think "Inclusivity" has got a bad rap! Don't you think it's easy to slip into the thinking that inclusion is about making space for people with "disabilities"? CIPD terms inclusion this way: "It’s about creating working environments and cultures where every individual can feel safe, experience a sense of belonging, and is empowered to achieve their full potential." It's clear that perhaps our view of inclusion needs to be broadened. How do we think wider? 💡 In what ways are we engaging our working environments and cultures to make people feel more "safe" 💡 In what ways can we be more creative so that our people feel more of a sense of belonging 💡 How can we engage our communities for recruitment that demonstrates the above 💡 Is there "hidden" potential within our work environments and cultures that we haven't tapped into We have the pleasure on Tuesday the 25th of March to host our friend Luke Manton who will be sharing at one of our WorkStory events (details and tickets in comments section 🫡 ) and he will be sharing his personal story and experience with Tourette’s in the workplace. Come along as we hear stories that will broaden your horizons around this topic. I think it's time we rethought 'Inclusion', don't you?

    A story of triumph and courage in the face of adversity 👏 We are thrilled to be welcoming Luke Manton from Manton Executives to the stage this month to share his experience in the business world with Tourette's. For those of you who have followed WorkStory for a little while, you will know that Luke was due to speak back in August last year. Tourette’s, a neurological disorder which can be hugely disruptive to a person’s life, was unfortunately, the reason that Luke was unable to do his talk for WorkStory. So now you see why we are even more excited to be welcoming Luke to the stage to open about his experiences! From adversity, diversity and inclusion in the workplace, this topic is one which highlights how integral it is for companies to recognise the importance of individuals, enabling everyone to have a voice 🗣 Luke Manton has certainly embraced his own uniqueness and believes in the power of individuality, striving for this in every working environment 🙌 🗣️If you are a leader you have a responsibility to treat your staff well and look after them 🗣️ Have a read to learn more 👇 https://bit.ly/3R1oJ6U Stay tuned for the tickets to be released this week to secure your space and be part of the conversation!

    🔥🏕️ “Campfire Culture” - the story you are seeking to change the world… There is nothing more convincing than a person who genuinely believes in the story they are telling. At our Tuesday networking event we had the privilege of hearing from the fantastic Rachel Savage from Brand New Story, to share her story and experiences with brand storytelling! Whether you were starting a brand from scratch, or looking to refine an existing one, there was plenty to learn and take away from the session - from speaker and attendees alike. We saw some incredible collaboration and connection at Cotswold Lakes Brew Co. | B Corp. A highlight for me and eye opening view came from breaking down the classic ‘hero’s journey’ that we see in books and films, and assessing how this can be applied in a professional context with its customer at the forefront 🦸 Thank you to Rachel and all of our attendees who came with an open mind, readiness to open conversations and look at their own brand story through a new perspective, and with a willingness to learn. Some fantastic new connections all around. A great networking session to start the year off for WorkStory! Keep your eyes peeled for our upcoming event in March WorkStory Redkite Solicitors Alice Chubb Alivia McClung Charlotte Morse Ryan Hogarty
