In a complex and dynamic world, it can be disastrous for a company to focus on fixed plans and strategies – they may be appropriate today but obsolete tomorrow. So what is it that gives the company direction and cohesion and guides the actions and the commitment of the individual? It's the purpose, which Simon Sinek impressively describes in his famous TED talk „Start with why?"

He states that organizations that are aligned with their purpose are happier and livelier and far more adaptable and resilient. Personal responsibility and self-organisation are encouraged and become an important part of the corporate culture. Managers and employees are better able to internalize the mission and actively live the values associated with it. Purpose thus creates motivation and clarity in the pursuit of strategic goals and is a decisive framework condition for economic success.

In this inspiring online workshop, you will learn the essential steps for the development or discovery of a purpose. You will be able to apply these steps on the team level as well as on the company level. We offer a separate workshop for discovering your individual purpose (Purpose Driven Organisations).
