You’ve probably been hearing that a growing number of millennials joining the workforce are motivated to use their careers as a vehicle to change our world. Yet, many don’t know how or where to start. Does this resonate with you? Does it remind you of your own path?

Set to be published by Echoing Green in April 2011, Work on Purpose tells the stories of five changemakers and their journeys from struggle and uncertainty to significance and triumph. You may be surprised to learn that their journeys were not a straight path to success. In fact, one of the most illuminating chapters is called "Life Out of Whack."

Through these true-life narratives, Work on Purpose offers a simple—yet powerful—framework: heart + head = hustle. In other words, personal fulfillment and societal impact are the result of aligning passion and talents.
