What will you achieve?

  • define what a purpose is, what the added value is of different kinds of purposes for organisations, and how these can be effectively managed
  • discuss the central role of an organisation’s character as the glue that holds an organisation together and that links future purpose-led aspirations with past commitments. And learn how to develop a purpose that matches the company’s character
  • learn about strategies of stimulating employees to align themselves behind a purpose and of actively involving them in its realization
  • explore how a compelling purpose statement, as well as an inspiring purpose narrative are core to building a purpose-led organisation. Develop skills in articulating a purpose statement and narrative that genuinely moves and animates employees and other stakeholders and gives the organisation an important strategic ‘lever’ when making decisions and commitments
  • discover ways in which a corporate purpose, once defined, can be activated within the organisation – and we underline the key role that leadership, culture and internal communications play in bringing a corporate purpose to life
