Today's Leaders are Rethinking the Role of Business in Society

It is clear to many that maximising profits as a single or primary goal is no longer effective, sustainable or equitable. It’s not tolerated by the broader community; it doesn’t attract, engage or retain the best talent; it doesn’t give adequate consideration to the social and environmental impacts business may have or solve the significant problems of our time, and it doesn’t effectively immunise businesses or entire industries from being wiped out by new entrants or shifting consumer demands.

People with Purpose helps organisations and their leaders become more prosperous, resilient and impactful, not by focusing on maximising profits per se, but by helping them become clear about why they exist and to reimagine how they might create value in ways that will improve the world. We help businesses make profit purposefully.

Making Profit Purposefully Requires Both Strategy and Leadership

An organisation can have an excellent purpose-led strategy but unless it has effective purposeful leadership to execute that strategy and engage its stakeholders in its execution, the strategy will fall short of its potential. Likewise, an organisation may have exceptional, purposeful leaders, but if the leaders are not equipped with an effective purpose-led strategy their impact will be limited.

Alignment is Key

Purpose is the pinnacle of management and leadership best practice and should be used as the first filter for decision-making. It informs an organisation’s vision and strategy and the types of mindsets and toolsets to be cultivated within the business and its people.

Purpose-led Strategy Design

Put your purpose into practice using our purpose-led strategy design methodology.

- Danielle Duell, Michael Rosemann Sometimes this requires an ambidextrous purpose-led strategy. A great purpose-led strategy clearly defines your organisation’s purpose, vision, values, goals/objectives, strategies and KPI’s.
