Scientific Studies on Purpose

Written by Julia in Experiments

1 year ago - 0 min read

Hi everyone!

I am a psychology student at LSE and I am very passionate about the potential power of organizational purpose. Is anyone aware of any scientific studies/experiments that have been conducted on the effects of such abstract purpose on the individual employee (or other stakeholders)?

Also, if anyone wants to support my own research - I will soon conduct a study for my dissertation, focusing on the effects of purpose on employee satisfaction, engagement, and motivation...

Thanks in advance for your input!

Best,
Julia

For the last two years, we've been working on a book about Haier, the Chinese manufacturing firm reinventing management as we know it. Writing this book was a long, interesting, and intense process, but we managed to wrap up the final manuscript of the book earlier this year, titled "Start-up Factory." Although the book will only be published in September 2022, we gave Corporate Rebels Academy community members early bird access to the final manuscript. Here is a selection of their reactions to the book.
