Ever felt like your work was missing something, even if the pay was good? Or, as a leader, are you struggling to truly inspire and retain your best talent? In this insightful episode, I sit down with the brilliant Steph Tuss, a master of organizational dynamics, to explore the surprising truth about what truly drives people in the workplace. We go beyond the typical discussions of salaries and benefits to uncover the profound impact of purpose, meaning, and a clear vision.

Key Highlights:

  1. Meaning Drives Loyalty: Discover why purpose keeps employees longer, even over higher pay.
  2. Vision Beyond Profit: Learn why an inspiring company vision (not just financial goals) boosts engagement.
  3. The Cost of No Purpose: Understand the hidden expenses of a disengaged workforce.
  4. Empower Their "Why": Learn to connect individual roles to the company's bigger impact.
  5. From Tasks to Transformation: Shift from task management to truly inspiring your team.

If you're ready to transform your workplace culture, understand employee motivation on a deeper level, or find more fulfillment in your own role, this conversation is a must-listen.
