Storytelling That Builds Trust Across Any Organization with Salvatore Manzi


Listen Later

“A shared narrative means everyone in the organization is speaking about the story in the same way.” — Salvatore Manzi


If every person on your team is telling a different version of your brand story, you don’t have a marketing problem—you have a clarity crisis.


In this episode, communication strategist and author Salvatore Manzi joins Rain to break down how to build a shared narrative that aligns everyone in your organization.


From CEOs to customer service reps, consistency in storytelling builds trust, clarity, and emotional resonance. Salvatore shares actionable frameworks for clear and compelling communication, how to blend personal and brand narratives, and why metaphors are essential tools for influence.


Whether you're leading a nonprofit or a global brand, this episode will sharpen your storytelling and unify your message.


In this episode, you will learn to:

  • Align your entire team behind a unified narrative that eliminates confusion
  • Use storytelling frameworks to turn complex data into meaningful messages
  • Build trust with audiences by integrating vulnerability into your leadership voice
  • Avoid common communication pitfalls in both nonprofits and STEM-driven businesses
  • Apply the “problem, process, outcome” structure to make your stories more actionable
