The Power of Purpose
Summary
Survey after survey shows that the leading driver of performance and productivity is not compensation or stretch goals, but the sense of purpose employees have when they belong to a community whose values they share.
If the tumult of the last few years has prompted your organization or leadership team to reconsider your people priorities, you’re in good company: your employees are reconsidering you, too.
Employees expect their jobs to bring a significant sense of purpose to their lives. Employers need to help meet this need or be prepared to lose talent to companies that will.
