“...one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of it’s creed.”
Martin Luther King Jr.

"Somehow we've weathered and witnessed
a nation that isn't broken
but simply unfinished...
To compose a country committed to all cultures, colors, characters and
conditions of man
And so we lift our gazes not to what stands between us
but what stands before us
We close the divide because we know, to put our future first,
we must first put our differences aside...
But while democracy can be periodically delayed
it can never be permanently defeated..."
Amanda Gorman

"It takes no compromise to give people their rights. It takes no money to respect the individual. It takes no survey to remove repressions."
Harvey Milk

"I am no longer accepting the things I cannot change. I am changing the things I cannot accept.”
Angela Davis

DESCRIPTION
Purpose Work Nation is a guidebook for leaders who want to activate their purpose, leave a profound legacy, enjoy soulful connection, kinship and belonging at work, and play a critical role fulfilling the purpose of the United States.

The United States has a sacred purpose - to be the first multicultural nation to achieve equity ("all men are created equal"), unity (E Pluribus Unum) and flourishing (“...life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness”).

And yet these are increasingly out of reach for the majority of citizens: 97% of us are unhealthy, 84% of us are stressed out, 78% of us are paycheck to paycheck, and 61% of us are lonely. And these are just the averages - life is much worse for women, BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ citizens, e.g., $.01 of black wealth for every dollar of white wealth.

Given the dysfunction of our nation’s politics, the low (25%) trust of government, our deeply segregated education system, the decades-long slide in religion, and the comparatively high trust in one’s employer (72%), it increasingly falls on enterprise to fulfill our noble purpose.

Purpose Work Nation illuminates a path for business to unlock cultures of empathy, trust, purpose and innovation, and in so doing, spark our nation’s renewal.
