In this webinar we will explore the conditions that give rise to meaningful work and the strategies we can use to achieve them.

About this event

Finding meaning in work is not a “nice to have”. It is a critical component of a good life. But many of us struggle to see the value of our work, or face an environment that actively undermines it. A new job, or a whole new career, can seem like the only solution.

This is wrong. Although there are any number of reasons that work can feel frustrating, research provides a growing understanding of the conditions we all need to experience a sense of purpose professionally.

Also, there are actions we can all take ourselves to feel a sense of meaning at work. And many things that managers and organisations can do to enable this.

In this webinar we will explore the main drivers of meaning (hint: autonomy is key) and show how each of us can re-engineer our work to generate meaning.

We will discuss:

  • The four factors which drive a sense of meaning at work
  • The role of mastery, feedback and values
  • How to find colleagues, customers and others who energise you (and why it matters so much)
  • Why you should aim to interact with the beneficiaries of your work
  • How side gigs and projects can give you a meaning fix
  • When and how to look for a new – more meaningful – job or career

Finally we will explore the concept of intentionality: the idea that we should always be choosing our future even when we face only difficult choices or have limited room for manoeuvre.

All participants receive:

  • Live access to the webinar and the chance to ask questions
  • 12-month recording access after the event
  • Bonus materials resource pack
