Kelli Harding MD MPH explores an emerging science between purpose and health that shows how living with a sense of purpose has implications for physical health. Higher life purpose can support sleep quality, cognitive functioning, better immune system, and mental wellbeing. It can decrease the risk of stroke by 72% and heart disease by 44%. Living with a sense of purpose can even give us seven more years of good health! Dr. Kelli Harding prescribed us with three doses of purpose. First, trust that you are on the right path and allow this to open up possibilities for you. Reframe failure as successfully finding out what doesn’t work. What would you do even if you might fail? Second, it takes a dose of creativity to infuse joy into your life and the lives of others. How can you switch up your routines and share your passion with others in creative ways? Third, it takes a dose of learning to find purpose, and fortunately, learning is a lifelong endeavor. Watch full keynote here: https://lnkd.in/eFdGehdB

In a fireside chat with Sara (Yoko) Blanchard, Alberto Nobis and Jackie Henry discussed wellbeing from the perspective of leaders in business. 85% of employees are not engaged in the workplace. However, the evidence is clear: more engagement and retention in employees leads to happier customers and increased profitability. Leaders have the responsibility to support people in being the best version of themselves and maximizing their potential. Alberto Nobis shared that if leaders do not have a clear purpose, they will not be able to convince people to follow them. It is not enough to have a mission statement written down, they need to follow their word with actions and be a role model. Jackie Henry stressed that organizations need to be clear on their purpose to be able to make an impact that matters and show up each day with their values front and center. How do you know when you have a successful purpose? Jackie Henry suggested measuring purpose using measurement tools and surveys. Alberto Nobis said, “If the purpose is working, you have happier people and happier customers.” Leaders should check in with their employees and customers everyday and talk to them to see if they are happy, and understand and measure why or why not.

Michael F. Steger, the world’s leading researcher on purpose, shared that the World Happiness Summit 2024 is one of the first times that people have come together at this scale to focus on purpose. As the Founder and Director of the Center for Meaning and Purpose, who better than Dr. Michael Steger to help us define purpose? Though it can feel like we are racing through life with no sense of where we are going, purpose is like throwing an anchor into the future that guides us toward a life that is worthy. Purpose activates the best in us and helps us focus on what matters most. It organizes our activities and goals and provides continuity across the chaos. Purpose is not everything, but it can connect and support a lot about what makes life feel amazing. So, how do we build purpose? Each individual’s purpose rests on solid foundations of who they are and what they value. Looking inward and reflecting is necessary for understanding what to do and where to go. Like a bridge, purpose can connect us from where we are to where we want to go, and support the path forward. Watch full keynote here: https://lnkd.in/eg25vpaU
