A Statement of Purpose
It is normal to slip through life just sliding from one thing to the next, not quite sure why we studied this, not quite sure why we took that job, no big reason for living where we do and so on. This is normal. Apart from normal there are those whose talents happen to coincide with something popular, perhaps in sports or entertainment. There are also those who are passionate about an area, and are allowed to be, and end up pursuing it as a career. Then there are those who are angry.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Neil Crofts
Authenticity in business works. Alignment around a shared and positive purpose is the absolute key to the difference between inspiring, energetic, positive businesses and regular business.
Authentic businesses have a purpose, which their customer, their suppliers and their staff can support and align with. Typically that purpose benefits society or the environment in some way that means that those who do not stand to benefit directly and financially from the success of the business can still feel the desire to support its purpose and therefore the business.
Authentic businesses flourish at a size and in markets where conventional rivals flounder. Why is this? What enables these businesses to make a profit where others cannot; to grow where others shrink, to fly were others fall? And how might this apply to other businesses or organisations?
Typically authentic businesses benefit from massively lower marketing and HR (staff turnover and sick days) costs than their conventional counterparts. Up to 80% and 91% respectively.
These benefits are supported by three key advantages:
1. Better decision making as people are emotionally connected with what they do and can trust and use their intuition
2. More motivation because people care about what they are doing
3. Support from outside the company because other people care about what you are doing.
You can help your workplace to transform and benefit from it’s authentic potential unleashing the true energy of their staff and aligning customers and suppliers to support them.
