What is a Meaningfulness Conversation?
The Meaningfulness Conversation is based on a dialogue about the barriers that in life or at work stand in the way of realizing the meaning that you aspire to and need. Nothing is more important than to make sure that the life we are living is as meaningful as possible, also at work. The value of our lives does not depend on our title or profession, but on our ability to live a life true to our own ethics and integrity. That is what the Meaningfulness Conversation is all about exploring and cultivating.
