More Than a Paycheck: How Exceptional Leaders Make Every Job Meaningful. 

As we navigate the most significant transformation in work in over a century, the human need for meaning remains the cornerstone of thriving teams and organizations. No matter how work evolves, our need to experience a sense of belonging, to believe our work matters, and to fulfill our potential will endure.

In this session, we will discuss our multi-year study showing that nearly half of an individual’s experience of meaning at work stems directly from what leaders do—or fail to do. We will introduce our Three C’s framework—Community, Contribution, and Challenge—and examine the role leaders play in cultivating these conditions. We will introduce practical, research-based tools that leaders can use to create more meaning at work.
