Constancy of Purpose

In  these challenging times (VUCA), it is important for any organization (profit or non-profit) to have a Constancy of Purpose to match & align for focused execution to organization's vision & 3 strategic priorities.  

Constancy of Purpose includes:

  • Anchor (Why) & Values (for decision-making)
  • Compass ( Where - direction) & Strategic Objectives (success measures to  keep performance on track)
  • 3 Strategic Priorities (What) & Culture of Execution (How)


Constancy of Purpose provides:

  • A match between individual's why-where-how-what to an organization's why-where-how-what  for hiring
  • Alignment of individual's tasks to the purpose and vision of an organization to provide meaning to work
  • Prioritization (permission to say 'no') to BFN (busy for nothing) activities not aligned to the 3 strategic priorities for productivity
