Talking with Sarah Rozenthuler about her book Powered by Purpose, which is so relevant to our time, the depth and breadth of knowledge she draws upon is self- evident.

Sarah was, in part, motivated to write Powered by Purpose in order to address

the Financial Times’ description of purpose as ‘a black box with all itsworkings hidden from view.’

I wanted to see if there was a way of laying out what

those mechanisms were and then translating them from that into really practical

tools.

We converse about her own underpinning

personal purpose, and It is impossible not to admire Sarah’s heady mix ofcompassion, drive and determination to write in order to support the corporatesector to be a force for good.

I think orientating a business, an organisation so

it’s truly of service to people and the planet, so it’s really creating value

for long term well being, is going to be one of the key factors of

organisational success going forwards.

Esther Foreman of the Social Change Agency,

describes Powered by Purpose as ‘compulsoryreading for any leader searching for purpose and looking to authenticallytransform their organisation, people and planet for positive impact.’

I hope that listening to our conversation

has you reaching to obtain your own copy of Powered

by Purpose.

It is available to order from your

favourite independent bookseller, Waterstones and in both print and kindle versionsfrom Amazon. Likewise, Sarah’s first book, How to Have Meaningful Conversations.
