COMMON CHALLENGES

Companies frequently struggle to effectively communicate their commitment to values and sustainability, affecting their ability to:
  • Engage and retain staff
  • Influence suppliers
  • Inform and excite current/potential clients, as well as shareholders

WHY STORIES MATTER

At MAD, we understand that while many organizations prioritize processes and technology, the key to genuine transformation—be it enhancing employee engagement or achieving corporate net-zero objectives—lies primarily in a fundamental shift in behavior.
We believe that stories are essential for driving behavioral change because they:
  • Connect on a personal level, making the learning experience more relatable and memorable.
  • Illustrate complex concepts through simple, impactful narratives
  • Inspire action by showcasing real-world examples of change and success.
  • Foster a deeper emotional investment, which is crucial for motivating long-term behavior change.
  • Build a shared vision, aligning individual motivations with organizational goals.
Corporations may also support Docathon, our filmmaking program for schools.
