Purpose isn’t just another buzzword. For workers of all ages, purpose is the new paycheck, and it’s a trend that’s here to stay. At a time when Americans spend a big part of their adult lives logging hours at jobs with which just 34% say they’re engaged—a statistic that is all the more disconcerting since this is the highest level of worker engagement reported since Gallup began tracking this in 2000—the need to find fulfillment is an imperative, for employees and employers alike.
Whether your work experience spans three years or three decades, know that most people lose sight of their “why” every once in a while, and we want to help you remember yours. So we’re launching “Career Challenge: Rediscover Your Purpose In 15 Days.”
Every weekday for the next three weeks, we’ll challenge you to tackle another aspect of your search for meaning, from putting purpose in perspective and crafting your tasks to investing in your career and learning how to say what you want. Since everyone has a different career path, we can’t guarantee that completing this challenge will change the way you feel about your job—but we know that if you join us on this journey, you’ll be better equipped to remember what drives you.
If you’re ready to get started, tune in here, Monday through Friday, for each day’s topic, and follow along with your fellow go-getters on Forbes’ LinkedIn. Today’s challenge is below.
