piring purpose must be a bold and lofty ambition. And most leaders think th
at to communicate a purpose that truly inspires\, they need a compelling an
swer to the question “Why do we do what we do?” But it turns out that most

d by a clear answer to the question “Who is served by the work that we do?”
