This book is for you, if:
How have we got here? When researchers found that people will happily accept a pay cut if they believe that their job fulfils a greater purpose, HR departments began advertising jobs as opportunities for purpose-fulfilment. Frustratingly, the banalities of office life haven’t lived up to the promise.
This has left millions of workers—in almost every industry—utterly unfulfilled at work.
Charlotte Cramer shares a proven, step-by-step guide to finding and fulfilling purpose all in a few hours a week, without sacrificing your salary.
You will learn:
The advice is based on Cramer’s academic research in neuroscience and co-founding the award-winning Purpose Project, CRACK +CIDER, which has helped over 40,000 people experiencing homelessness; landed her interviews on BBC, ITV, and CBS news; resulted in speaking gigs to audiences of 2,000 people; and earned coverage in The Guardian, SF Chronicle, and Fast Company, among many others.
Packed with practical advice and worksheets with downloadable and printable versions, The Purpose Myth will give you newfound motivation to explore, identify, and fulfil purpose by changing the world, all in your spare time.
