It is the film that counts, not the title
In conversation with Nick Craig about leadership and purpose
In a series of interviews, Klaartje van Gasteren, Marnix Reijmerink and Jakob van Wielink talk to international thinkers, all of whom demonstrate that discovering and recognizing our vulnerability allows us to uncover our talent and potential. These are the stories of people who dare to show themselves and invite and challenge readers to do the same.
In this interview, Nick Craig talks about the search for purpose: everyone's unique gift to the world that becomes visible and tangible because we are all invited to use our talents for the world around us. He tells us about how purpose connects to the global work he does with leaders and organizations.
“The life of your purpose is a 'soul contract'. It's not about money, it's about an inner tendency to want to move something in the world. The challenge you have as a person, as a leader - when you know what your purpose is and when you have awakened, as it were - is looking for ways to wake up others around you. In this way, they too can experience what their unique gift to the world is. ”
The interview is published in the Journal for Coaching in June 2020 in the series ‘Reveal your authentic self’:
