As we all know, roles are created by the organization to achieve its mission and goals. Roles make up the whole of the organization. If there are no roles, there is no organization.
Roles can come and go due to factors such as contraction, expansion or the introduction of new technologies like automation or artificial intelligence.
Regardless, when an individual is performing in their role at work for the organization and themselves, one of three different mindsets will likely be exhibited.
For leaders of people, the concept of "role purpose" is critically important to understand. The three types of role purpose mindsets are key to helping employees achieve both personal and role purpose.
This "lo-tech" video (found below) helps to explain the basic concept of 'role purpose' ... something I describe in detail in my new book, THE PURPOSE EFFECT.
It's an introductory video (4:38 in length) aimed at leaders of people.

Dan challenged us to have clarity of purpose, both as individuals and as an organization. He related inspiring stories drawing on his experience in business, technology and academia. As he said, โThere is no ownership without belonging.โ
Christian Pantel, D2L
Fantastic engaging talk for our global partner summit. Thank you so much, Dan!
Barb Kinnard, CEO Response Biomedical Corp
Dan not only brought his presentation to life with his charisma, but also content, style and presentation finesse. Our members were especially interested in his thought provoking and top of mind topic on the future of work and how weโre going to be leading the next generation of leaders.
Cheryl Goodwin, CPA
Dan is a conference organizerโs ideal speaker. Not only did he inspire and energize our group, but he also masterfully adapted his content so it resonated with the audience and our conference theme. As a bonus, Dan is able to nimbly navigate to adjust to a reduced time slot when other speakers went over time without sacrificing the impact of his session.
Director and General Counsel
Dan accomplished what we set out to do, which was not only to be inspirational, but also to leave everyone with tools and food for thought / self-reflection to improve their personal and professional lives.
