nextgen.careers offers talents a job board where they can find companies with purpose. It offers a simple system to assess what purpose a company has, how the company is putting its purpose into action, and whether the company is achieving any meaningful progress towards its purpose.
How we assess a company's purpose
Based on the science of purpose cultivation at an individual and a corporate level, nextgen.careers has developed a simple Purpose Framework to help assess a companies purpose. The Purpose Framework allows companies to define their purpose throughout three dimensions and allows them to communicate what their purpose is.
The three dimensions of purpose are …
- Intention – What are we doing and what is our motivation behind it?
- Meaningfulness – How is the goal you are pursuing meaningful to the company and how does the company it stays on track?
- Contribution – How does the company measure its health and achievements? What is the impact they want to have and are they actually achieving it?
