Connecting Your Personal Mission to Your Business
Do you know what makes you happy? Like the saying of Socrates, “Know thyself,” it is important to understand what really drives and motivates you.

When was the last time you were joyously happy? Identify what made that happen, and then pursue that, which will lead to good things, says Doug Haugh. Many people have never really thought about it—and the initial instinctive answers are often incorrect. It’s not “making money” or “being successful.” For most people, the answers are often things like “a meaningful relationship with a spouse,” “the relationship with my children,” and “finding meaning in what I do.”
As a leader, your job is to help people figure out what their personal mission is, and then connect that to the company’s mission.
In this session, you’ll learn:
- How to build a business around purpose
- Why good people need a strong framework to guide behavior
- How to focus on creating opportunity and value
