What is Purpose Driven Mission?

A purpose-driven mission means people all through your company are working on purpose.  They know their purpose in life.  They have identified their values and linked them with their purpose with the company mission and core values.

It is a fact that productivity can be fired up with purpose. Korn ferry Institute has researched purpose-driven companies.

Korn Ferry identified four key conditions that make up the foundation of thriving purpose-driven organizations:

1. The CEO et al. lead from values and purpose to form decisions.
2. People are the top priority. Companies drive growth with investments in people.
3. Culture is reflective of human communities, as people bring their whole selves to work.
4. Commitment to purpose is obvious when observing all parts of the organization.

According to Korn Ferry Institute, purpose-powered companies make more money.

Have happier customers and have more engaged, happier employees, with increased productivity.

In Mission-Driven-Companies, the CEO down to the front line understands the company mission and understands the core values. They practice the mission and core values and support them daily with their own personal purpose and values.

Purpose-driven companies are proven to have high-quality products, advanced compound annual growth rates, and satisfied, enthusiastic employees. These fulfilled employees deliver a great customer experience.
