“Today’s leaders have to be purposeful, be clear about whom they serve, be conscious of what their true role is, be driven by values, and be authentic—the five “Be’s” of the purposeful leader.”

“Purpose and human connections constitute the very heart of business. And I believe they should be at the heart of the necessary and urgent refoundation of business now under way. Capitalism as we have known it for the past few decades is in crisis. More and more people hold the system responsible for social fractures and environmental degradation. Employees, customers, and even shareholders expect much more from corporations than a blind pursuit of profit. Disengagement at work is a global epidemic.”

“The concept of work as a curse dates as far back as Greek antiquity, goes all the way to the Industrial Revolution and still impacts how society tends to think and feel about work today. It may have started with Zeus punishing Sisyphus to an eternity of pointless labor, pushing a large boulder up a steep hill just to watch it roll back down. Ancient Greeks viewed work as demeaning, getting in the way of the ideal of a life dedicated to contemplation and the acquisition of knowledge. Romans took a similar view. And the French word for work—travail—comes from a Latin word for a torture device.”
