Connecting to Purpose Gives Us Courage

When challenges seem numerous or even insurmountable, it's important we stay connected to our purpose and that we help our teams do the same. It is the fuel that will keep us going and infuses meaning into our work.  Having a sense of purpose calls us to growth and to step out of our comfort zones. Staying connected to our purpose is so vital, we've chosen it as the theme of this year's What's Right in Education virtual conference. During this free conference, you'll have the opportunity to hear stories from leaders and partners who are living out their purpose and making a difference. In this episode, listen as our host Dr. Janet Pilcher discusses how we can cultivate a fresh sense of purpose in our work.This episode answers questions such as:How can we find and maintain a sense of purpose in our work in the face of obstacles?What kind of mindset is required to stay fueled with purpose?How can we help our team members find purpose and meaning in their work?We will not release a Thursday episode, but we will be back on Monday with a new episode.Recommended Resources: Connect to Purpose, Finding Purpose at Work, Using Purpose to Inspire Action, & Connecting the Heart and Mind is Connecting to PurposeRecommended Podcasts: Can You Fix My Culture?, What Questions Should I Be Asking My Employees?, Identify Barriers to Change & Increase  EmployeeEngagement with RecognitionJoin us virtually for our 9th Annual Education Leadership Conference: What's Right in Education 2020.  As we look back at the year so far, we see a community of educators who are stronger and more resolved than ever to make sure that students have every opportunity to succeed, despite the obstacles ahead. It takes courage to face uncertainty and willingness to unlearn some of our most successful practices and define new practices.
