We don’t tell you how to make meaning in your organization; the meaning is already being made. We help you recognize it and foster the mechanisms to spread it throughout your organization, working it into the soil of every department and every decision to feed your company’s growth.

Our approach is evidence based

When Pathways started, in the 1990s, we wondered why people with competitive skill sets didn’t always choose what seemed like the prime job opportunities. So, we asked them. And then we asked thousands more employees and candidates in interviews why they chose the jobs they did. We didn’t leave it at the standard, surface questions; we dug deeper, especially with candidates who had the most options. The data piled up and eventually the answer was undeniable: Meaning. No other reward from work comes close to competing with the experience of waking up every morning to go to work on something that you experience as personally meaningful.

This insight has proven consistent in more than 500 companies and 6 countries.

Our clients have found that leading and working from meaning transforms organizational culture, energizes personal development, and taps into a sustainable source of growth.
