True Grit

theHRDirector magazine (May 2025;Issue 247) have again kindly invited me to contribute my thoughts and advice. This time about purpose (as it relates to leadership) but also addressing how to (possibly) get us humans working together better in a fast-moving digital AI enabled age - informed by ideas from my third book Making a Difference (published by De Gruyter). My article suggests that inspiring and uniting around shared purpose is going to become even more relevant as technology increasingly disintermediates us from other people and our IRL communities. It appears on page 52 and can be read for free on the HRD website if you register your details here.
