About this Event
Bring your Purpose Alive and Thrive!
Purpose is a journey not a destination. When we’re on our purpose path, it powers our performance and wellbeing. We have a positive impact on others and go the extra mile. We are passionate about our work and feel proud to work for our organisation.
Many people, however, are not in this place. The Great Resignation, where around 40% of the global workforce are ready to resign this year, reveals the extent of the gap. The growing trend of ‘work intensification’ shows that record numbers of people are reporting a relentless pace, tight deadlines and high stress. It doesn’t have to be this way.
In this session, we will share practical tools that will help you to flourish by uncovering your purpose. Join us for an all-day in-person session in Birmingham if you would like to:
• Experience more joy, meaning and energy in your day-to-day work
• Feel inspired by stories of how business leaders have made purpose come alive
• Commit to taking the next step that is right for you in your career
At the session, you will learn:
• How to uncover your personal purpose
• How to align your individual purpose with the purpose of organisation
• How conversations about purpose bring clarity, confidence and fun!
You will also have the opportunity to meet the founders of the Purpose Collective Alberto Gonzalez Otero, Chris Black well and Sarah Rozenthuler in person.
This is an all-day interactive workshop that includes:
• Six hours of connection and inspiration from 10am to 4pm
• Practical tools and exercises to help you uncover your purpose
• Lunch and plenty of opportunities to network

Meet the team
Chris Blackwell is the founder of Purpose Led Performance a consultancy that provides leadership development and consultancy to Scale-Ups and purpose driven organisations. Chris was inspired to set up Purpose Led Performance because he fundamentally disagrees with the prevalent business narrative that there is a conflict between being profit focused or between being purpose focused! Chris believes that purpose is THE vital ingredient to achieve high performance and sustained growth.
Prior to founding Purpose Led Performance Chris worked as a CEO and senior Executive in purpose-led organisations that achieved incredible growth, became number one in their markets and were recognised on seven occasions as being amongst the Top 100 employers in the UK. Chris is also a ScaleUp coach supporting Tech businesses in Birmingham and a Fellow at the Royal Society of Arts.
Sarah Rozenthuler has a passion for engaging teams to do great work. When a team becomes purpose-led, rather than dominated by a strong personality, it achieves extraordinary results. Sarah joined the Purpose Collective as Covid-19 took hold and made more conventional ways of working impossible. Sarah has discovered how purpose is a magnet for collaboration even when a team can’t get in the same room together. As the most potent unit of change in an organisation, Sarah loves to help teams go on the journey to become purpose-led. Her clients include BP, Discovery Inc and Standard Chartered Bank. Sarah is the author of two books: How to Have Meaningful Conversations (Watkins, 2019) and Powered by Purpose: Energise Your People to Do Great Work with a foreword by Paul Polman and an epilogue by Dr Victoria Hurth.
Alberto Gonzalez Otero is an optimist leader and entrepreneur who believes in Purpose as the driving force for positive change for individuals and organisations. He has spent almost 20 years in sales and commercial leadership roles working as Head of Sales, Director of Customer Experience and Customer Success at different software start-up and scale-up companies building, leading and developing teams across different countries and continents, creating company cultures, designing strategies, implementing technology and processes. Today, Alberto helps organisations, leaders and teams discover their purpose, transform and maximise results through leadership programs, workshops and retreats.
