When I’m out speaking on passion, purpose, inspirational leadership, and creating destination workplaces, I encounter so many people in the audience who are either desperate to find their purpose or feel bad about themselves because they haven’t found it or aren’t living it.
And it just doesn’t have to be that way!
But don’t take my word for it. Take Jordan Grumet‘s. He’s written a marvelous new book called, “The Purpose Code: How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacy.” And we had a perfectly delightful conversation last night on my Working on Purpose podcast to talk about it.
