Purposeful People is an anthology of 19 different personal stories about what it means to live a purpose-driven life.
The book has been put together by Chris Paton, Managing Director of Quirk Solutions, a management consultancy that specialises in business resilience and execution success. He has compiled the book with the help of 19 business leaders, all of whom were invited to share their personal stories and unique perspectives of what it means to live a purpose-driven life.
The authors all have direct experience navigating the ups and downs of life with an unwavering sense of service in their field. Advice and anecdotes from nursing wards to battlefields and boardrooms thread together as a guide to harnessing self-belief and gaining support in turbulent times.
The book has been self-funded by the authors to ensure all proceeds go to four incredible charities: SSAFA, the Armed Forces Charity, Cancer Fund for Children, Shelter UK and Samten Meditation.
