Start with Purpose

Imagine a workplace where everyone feels responsible, not only for their immediate jobs, but for the overall performance of the business.  Imagine a workplace where everyone feels empowered and motivated to improve the way things are done.  And, imagine a workplace where everyone feels responsible for each other’s safety, well-being and happiness.  Well, what about a workplace where managers, supervisors and employees regularly coach each other regarding positive behaviours in the workplace and why doing the right thing for the right reasons is so important.  Sounds a little like a work of fiction, or a Neverland in some far away world, right? Wrong!

One of my most inspirational reads from Simon Sinek. People – Purpose – Passion

Understanding the why in personal and professional life is essential for all leaders.  The why defines our purpose and a true purpose creates passion.  It is our reason for getting up in the morning. 

Management excellence and operational efficiencies are not bad things.  In fact, they are very good and necessary things.  However alone, they can give short term results and short-lived success.  Enduring companies focus on people.  Enduring companies find leaders and employees who put people first, because it is people who drive the results within the business.  For a company to be truly effective and to produce lasting positive results, we need leaders across the organization who care about their people & value their people, and who invest in people above all, and always.
