The Purpose Economy, Expanded and Updated

Aaron Hurst Β· 2016
74/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Aaron Hurst backs his thesis with real survey data and genuine case studies, which lifts this above the typical purpose-talk book. The argument that purpose β€” through impact, growth, and community β€” is reshaping the economy is well-developed and practical for leaders and HR professionals. It does not break entirely new ground, but it makes its case earnestly and clearly.
