Purpose driven companies are defined by 3 principles:

  • The purpose of business is to do both well and good.

  • Great leaders and great organizations excel at providing their people, their customers and their communities both economic and social value.

  • Aligning an enterprise and its people to achieve a worthy purpose is not just the right thing to do, but is also the most effective way to achieve sustained high performance in an increasingly unforgiving competitive environment.
