Do you dare take the Path Less Travelled?

If you reflect on your journey, have you been taking?the path less travelled?
As a subscriber to my?newsletter, chances are that you are,?so let me explain what I'm talking about.
A colleague recently told me?that the university he guest lectures for has had the same?economics text book for more than 35 years. You know, the one that assumes?the world's resources are infinite.
The way we do?business must change, and?this example demonstrates how hard it is to break away from deep-rooted beliefs?and established norms.?We find?comfort in fitting in and not rocking the boat.
Transformative change comes from the?courageous leaders amongst us who write?the new textbook when the old one is outdated.
They often feel?uncomfortable,?lonely and?misunderstood; their colleagues and peers don't always 'get' them.
They're motivated to?contribute?to something bigger than themselves and, while individual recognition and reward may fall their way, it's not their driving force.
They're taking?the path less travelled, and we need more of them.
Circling back to my opening question:
The Path Less Travelled?is my?theme?for 2025.
It's about?supporting forward-thinking leaders and teams who want to exert more influence?in our transition to a purpose-driven and sustainable world.
Do you want to join me and make it yours too?
I'd love to hear your thoughts. ?
Yours on Purpose
