The Role of "Purpose" in an Organization
The Role of "Purpose" in an Organization
(Sinek, 2009)
My Interpretation of The Role Purpose Plays
When I think about an organization, the first thought that crosses my mind is "what do they do?"
It is not until after that initial thought of what do they do that I start to think about why they do what they do.
When we can identify the purpose of an organization, we are able to identify the importance of that agency and “sell” those services to others.
"What you do proves what you believe" (Sinek, 2009).
My Example of Purpose in My Organization
St. Joseph’s Addiction Treatment Center - When I first heard of this organization, my thought was “they treat people who suffer from drug and/or alcohol addiction.”
Once I started to work for St. Joseph’s – and get more familiar with the field of addiction – I began to think differently and my thinking eventually shifted to “promoting healing and recovery for individuals, families, and communities."
