What is the power of your purpose?
Purpose as Business Strategy
Our purpose is yours.
Since 1983, we have developed and proven the strategy of purpose: helping organizations uncover their reason for being beyond profits, grounded in humanity. Why? Because we knew purpose was a powerful growth accelerator. While it didn't seem like business strategy when we started, today it is no longer a question of if a company embraces purpose, but how.
Ideas on Purpose
Your organization's purpose is more than a tagline, advertisement, or PR campaign. It's why your brand matters to people. It's at the core of your culture, and it starts with employees. It deepens relationships critical to business success.
Intrigued? We thought you might be—that's why we love sharing our ideas on purpose.
