Karen James : On Purpose HomepageKaren James : On Purpose

Karen James is a purpose expert with a no-nonsense approach to igniting ethical transformation for organisations. Karen James believes it is time for just change.

PURPOSE. STRATEGY. EXECUTION.

Purpose

“Purpose” sometimes feels like the corporate world’s new black.

But the data reinforces that the why of work is more important to many than the what of work. And that is increasingly true as organisations understand more about how to engage employees to “go the extra mile” with discretionary effort.

We work with you to define a purpose that is authentic, will resonate with your stakeholders and create a platform for growth.

We also help you embed that purpose in your organisation and move it away from slogans stuck on walls and mouse mats to something that you can genuinely live and breath.

And, perhaps most importantly, measure progress against that purpose.

Strategy

Strategy without execution is the sound of one hand clapping.

We believe that strategy is the servant of purpose and that strategy can rarely be an end in itself.

We also believe that strategy aligned to purpose, and brought to life by execution, is the key to growth and sustainability.

We will work with you to align strategy to purpose, or purpose to strategy, and create and execute deliverable and measurable plans to make them happen.

Execution

Everyone loves strategy. Execution has less friends.
We love execution!

Whether it’s executing on a strategically important project or designing and implementing purpose and strategy, we deliver.

We love supporting internal teams and partners in getting things done.

We’ll also put together bespoke teams to deliver entire projects where capacity or capability are stretched.
