Hi, I'm Sarah Ellis and this is the Squiggly Careers podcast. Each week we chat about a different

topic to do with work and share practical ideas and actions that we hope will help you to navigate

your squiggly career with a bit more confidence and clarity. This week is one of our Ask the

Expert interviews.

Shortly, you'll hear me chatting to London Business School professor of organisational behaviour and author Dan Cable.

And we're going to be focusing this interview on purpose.

What is purpose?

Why does it matter?

And most importantly, what does it mean to kind of have more purpose in the work that we do dan is brilliant here such a joy to have a conversation with he's so full of energy and enthusiasm

and it was exactly the kind of conversation i was hoping for practical realistic and really

useful well certainly that was kind of my takeaway from

the conversation. Dan has loads of great resources that I'm always recommending to people who

come on our workshops and you can find them all in one place at dan hyphencable.com. Of course, we'll

link to them in the show notes. In in particular if you're looking for an article

to read on things like job crafting he wrote something for harvard business review called

how to turn your boring job into a job your love quite a dramatic title but actually some

really helpful content in there that i'm pretty sure everyone will benefit from so i hope you

enjoy the episode and i'll be back at the end just to let you know what's coming up next.

Dan, thank you so much for joining me today on the Squiggly Careers podcast.

It's great. Thanks for letting me contribute.

Well, I'm really looking forward to our conversation today because we're going to be talking

about a topic that comes up a lot, but I think people still really struggle with.
