Narrative

Stripe Press champions narratives of progress, and the story of innovation within organizations is central to that mission. One critical, often overlooked element, is the cultivation of "scenius" – the collective intelligence and collaborative spirit that fuels groundbreaking work. Stripe Press seeks to explore this dynamic within organizations: What were the unspoken rules, the shared philosophies, and the methodologies that allowed a team to transcend individual brilliance and achieve something truly extraordinary? How did the organization's physical environment, its relationship with academia or government, and its response to market challenges contribute to this potent environment of innovation?

We are particularly interested in the qualitative aspects of scenius. Beyond simply outlining processes, we aim to understand the culture that fostered them. What role did mentorship play? How was failure viewed? What mechanisms were in place to encourage open dialogue and debate? By capturing these nuanced details, Stripe Press aims to provide readers with actionable insights into how they can cultivate their own pockets of collective genius, driving progress within their own organizations and contributing to a more innovative future.
