In Episode 238, I speak with author, speaker, and co-founder & chief purpose officer of PurposeU, Ian Chamandy. Over the last 20 years, Ian has helped more than 400 organizations define their purpose and become consistently uniquely remarkable through his proprietary Blueprint process. "Blueprinting" defines an organization's purpose – in 7 words or less – and uses it to design how it will operate and communicate. He has adapted this process for individuals so they can create a personal Blueprint for a happy, productive, self-directed and purpose-driven life. He is also an author, speaker and coach, as well as a contributor to a nationally broadcast TV station. He co-wrote the book "Why should I choose you?: Answering the most important question in business in seven words or less", published by HarperCollins. This is an essential, inspiring, and uplifting conversation, not to be missed.
For the past 20 years, Ian Chamandy has helped over 400 CEOs transition from traditional management to the focus; employee motivation/retention and sales benefits of being purpose-driven organizations. CEOs use his simple, 3-step process that starts with defining the ONE thing that makes their organization uniquely remarkable – in 7 words or less. This becomes the company's purpose, and it is used to design how it will be managed and how it will communicate. This is how you make a company consistently and sustainably uniquely remarkable.
The pandemic made hundreds of million of people around the world STOP, examine their lives and realize they aren't happy. When asked why, they say something like "I want to live a life of meaning and purpose". The pandemic is just one of many "trigger events" that cause people to search for meaning and purpose. Others include graduation, career change, retirement, health events, death, military transition and empty nest. The problem is: How do you actually discover your purpose? PurposeU offers an online course that leads you step-by-step through a proven process to reveal your purpose – in 7 words or less. Designed, developed, tested and refined offline over the past 20 years with over 400 companies, we are now offering it online for individuals so that you can design and live a life of meaning and purpose at your own pace and in the comfort of your own home.
