Drawing from her book, 'Unbridled Business,' and insights from Simon Sinek's 'Start With Why,' Julia explains how purpose serves as the key pillar for team effectiveness, structure, and performance. She cites studies by Deloitte and other research indicating that purpose-driven companies not only achieve higher financial performance but also foster a strong sense of belonging among team members.
The episode emphasises the significance of aligning all stakeholders with the business's purpose to reduce friction and drive productivity and profitability. Julia also invites listeners to join an upcoming webinar on transforming purpose into profit using her three-step framework. www.businesshorsepower.com/unbridled-impact
