The many forms of success stories in business

First things that come into my mind, when thinking of success in business, include images of wealth, distinctive innovation, and industry-leading achievements. A success can be embodied by an individual who is celebrated for their entrepreneurial vision and a great exit story. Or it can be a company known for its unique practices. Success stories engage us with their compelling narratives of growth and impact. Yet, success is deeply subjective. Behind every triumph lies hard work, determination, and often sacrifices.

But what is worth sacrificing for success in business? Money, time, health, relationships, or integrity? I personally believe true success feels meaningful. It should carry personal significance, contribute positively to others, and ideally connect to a deeper purpose. Not all successes tick all these boxes, but for me integrity, in particular, is non-negotiable. Success without truth and values is no success at all. This is why I believe there is a significant difference in raw achievements and meaningful successes.

Chasing success is a wonderful endeavor. Think of all the opportunities to create, inspire, achieve, affect, and celebrate. But doing so with integrity ensures that achievements are built on a foundation of values and trust. Going after meaningful success means leaving a legacy that not only elevates your own life but uplifts those around you.?

This newsletter explores a variety of success stories that show the diverse ways individuals and companies achieve and define success. What would your success story look like?
