- “What we have found is that when people are aligned with their purpose, and they have success and well-being, then you have a whole team of people who are really maximizing their joy and they show up just in such an incredible way because they’re lit up. They’re passionate about what they’re doing. They’re passionate about life. And furthermore, they feel really well supported in their life and at the company and being at a company that really looks at them and says, hey, you’re not just a project manager or a designer. You’re not just an employee. You’re a human being. ” (05:58 | Paddy Condon)
