Sometimes, I am blessed to see a giant in the making.
One of them is Mighty Therapeutics.
This summer, I booked a meeting with this Boston-based company to take place in New Hampshire. At the time, I learned they had about 40 employees.
When we finally met last week, I discovered they had grown to approximately 70!
That’s quite a story in itself.
When I speak to companies about storytelling, I remind them that each of us is living our own individual story while simultaneously being part of something bigger: a company that has a story of its own.
Understanding that connection is powerful. It helps an organization communicate its larger purpose while recognizing the incredible stories, experiences, and passions of the individuals who make it possible.
And Mighty Therapeutics has quite a story to tell.
Their challenge is taking incredibly complex medical advancements and translating them into stories that are easy to understand, easy to engage with, and impossible to ignore.
After spending time with their team, I have no doubt they’re up to the challenge.
I met with approximately 10 people, and I was struck by how exceptionally bright, enthusiastic, and passionate they were.
These are people driven by the possibility of using tools and technologies that didn’t even exist a few months ago, with the hope of eradicating a rare disease and eventually applying that same technology to tackle some much more common ones.
Think about that.
The science is extraordinary. But the people behind it? That’s where the real story begins.
To Melissa, Megan, Mary, and all the others I didn’t get a chance to take a picture with, congratulations!
I have a feeling we’re witnessing the early chapters of something remarkable.
And I can’t wait to hear what happens next in your story!
