Abstract
In 2007, two friends decided to establish a new IT company, but not just another software company – a phrase that later became one of their slogans. The Finnish IT company called Vincit has turned out to be a success story both financially and in terms of personnel and customer satisfaction. The company is known for its skillful use of media as a deliverer of their company story. This paper examines organizational storytelling through media. The empirical data was gathered between 2012 and 2019, and it is analyzed using narrative analysis focusing on the types of stories told and how they are narrated. Keywords— storytelling, organizational story, management, qualitative research _________________________________________________________________________________
期刊介绍:
South Asian Journal of Business and Management Cases (SAJBMC) is a peer-reviewed, tri-annual journal of Birla Institute of Management Technology, Greater Noida (India). The journal aims to provide a space for high-quality original research or analytical cases, evidence-based case studies, comparative studies on industry sectors, products, and practical applications of management concepts. The journal likes to publish problem-solving, decisional and applied types of cases. Such cases must have linkage with theory, at least one dilemma (also known as case issue) and a protagonist around whom the case issue will revolve. Publication of pure research, applied research and field studies with empirical data do not fall under the domain of SAJBMC. Fictitious cases are not welcome.
