“If we march into that village and we start trying to persecute people for using poison, something that's very illegal, nobody's going to talk to us. We're not going to find out where the poison came from. We're not going to be able to shut anything down. We should take the approach that people are using poison because they're desperate, because they see no other alternative.” – Andrew Stein Andrew Stein is a wildlife ecologist who spent the past 25 years studying human carnivore conflict from African wild dogs and lions in Kenya and Botswana to leopards and hyenas in Namibia. His work has long focused on finding ways for people and predators to coexist. He is the founder of CLAWS , an organization based in Botswana that's working at the intersection of cutting-edge wildlife research and community driven conservation.

Today we follow up with our discussion on purpose, mission and vision from the last few episodes by focusing on how to clearly define your work vision.

In this episode I discuss:

The link between purpose and vision and why the connection is so important
Painting the picture and how it moves people together
Moving beyond personality and behaviours and how a vision can get everyone rowing in the same direction.
How fear is the biggest challenge with living out your vision
Why vision really matters, and why you and the people around you need to believe in that vision.

Today’s Get on Purpose Action (GOPA):

What is your work vision? Is it clear? Is it blurry? Does it exist?

This week find and set your work or organisational vision.

In Season 1 we talked about you and creating your blueprint, Season 2 was with conversations with people who are living their purpose and with this new third Season, we will explain closely the intersection of three areas - capital markets, global needs and human behaviours and how they all work together. In Season 3 I will talk about three people I follow closely Blackrock's CEO Larry Fink, Marvin Oka and Professor Muhammd Yunus. In Larry's 2018 open letter to CEO A Sense of Purpose he talks about why all corporations need a long-term growth strategy of stakeholder engagement on a global platform and the need to move away from short-term pressures. "Without a sense of purpose, no company, either public or private, can achieve its full potential. It will ultimately lose the license to operate from key stakeholders. It will succumb to short-term pressures to distribute earnings, and, in the process, sacrifice investments in employee development, innovation, and capital expenditures that are necessary for long-term growth. It will remain exposed to activist campaigns that articulate a clearer goal, even if that goal serves only the shortest and narrowest of objectives. And ultimately, that company will provide subpar returns to the investors who depend on it to finance their retirement, home purchases, or higher education."

15:31

Today on the podcast we have the unique privilege of being in conversation with Nobel Peace Prize Recipient, Professor Muhammad Yunus talking about his own purpose and valuable view on building social businesses to solve global problems. We also discuss his new book A World of Three Zeros: The New Economics of Zero Poverty, Zero Unemployment, and Zero Net Carbon Emissions. Professor Yunus is a Bangladeshi social entrepreneur, banker, economist, and civil society leader who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for founding the Grameen Bank and pioneering the concepts of microcredit and microfinance. These loans are given to entrepreneurs too poor to qualify for traditional bank loans. In this episode we discuss: Professor Yunus’ purpose that includes focus on reforming the education system so that young people can discover their purpose as well as get the knowledge to reach their full potential whilst creating positive change in the world. Professor Yunus’ designed his purpose by simply wanting to be useful to another person. When he found he was useful to one person, he realised his solution was relevant to more than one person and started helping more than one person and expanding to solve global problems. That no problem is a local problem, everything is a global problem. Professor Yunus' leadership style focuses on stubbornness to ensure you can work with those who can't yet see the value in your solutions to be successful in creating change. The importance of belief and faith in your cause, so that all ‘impossibles’ could be ‘possibles’. How Professor Yunus’ new book 'The World of Three Zeroes' shares the story of his life to help lead you in creating, leading and operating a profitable social business. How only a handful of people control the world's wealth and how this situation worsens with a focus on self interest. How to view the world through bifocal glasses with dollar signs in one lens to look after ourselves, but then also a humanitarian lens to look after others through creating social business that solve global problems. Finally, we discuss the importance of knowing and using your incredible power.
