I Feel Like I Don't Even Know You

Why Our Relationship with Work is Broken (Part 4)

What does your company stand for?

Not what does your company sell…

Not what does your company do….

At the end of the day, when we've folded up all the spreadsheets, what is your organization all about?

While a few of us would have no problem answering this question, far too many of us can't.

Sure, we make products or provide services valued by some set of consumers… but is that really what we are spending our lives doing?

For a growing number of workers, the answer is NO… and that's a pretty good indication that your relationship with work is broken.

Do you feel like you don't even know your organization anymore, or maybe you never did?

Does what you do for a living align with who you are and what you hope to be… take this simple survey and we'll share the results with you next week…

As always, I look forward to hearing what you think at [email protected].

Stay connected,

-Jeff
