People are waking up to the reality that traditional employment might not be the path to the fulfilling career they deserve.
The Hidden Cost of the Purpose Gap
When you’re stuck in work that doesn’t align with your values or goals, it affects every part of your life. You might find yourself:
- Dreading Monday mornings and living for weekends
- Feeling like your skills and talents are being wasted
- Wondering if this is all there is to your career
- Watching younger colleagues get promoted while you stay put
- Feeling burned out despite working harder than ever
The research backs this up. McKinsey found that employees expect their job to be a significant source of purpose. Employers need to help meet this need or be prepared to lose talent to companies that will.
