About this event

A higher purpose than profit is now an imperative to create a thriving, healthy workplace. Purpose answers the fundamental questions of…Why are we here? What is most meaningful to us? How is the world better because we exist? What is the legacy we are leaving? As millions of us are increasingly beginning to seek meaning beyond money and material wealth, these questions are becoming highly relevant at both a personal and organisational level. This workshop is a unique opportunity for you to work on your own purpose with a group of like- minded people who are also passionate about bringing their why to work. The workshop is based on the principles and practices of Carolyn Tate’s new book, The Purpose Project and all participants receive a signed copy of the book.
