SESSION DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------
Hidden in Plain Sight: The Secret Mission for Meaning at Work
We've been taught to pursue meaning through the wrong channels - seeking it in promotions, recognition, or finding the "perfect" job. This misguided search leaves talented professionals feeling empty despite their accomplishments.
Reagan Pugh reveals the counterintuitive truth about meaningful work: it's not about finding the right position, but adopting the right perspective. Drawing from his book "Too Emotional: Overcome the Thunderstorm of Feelings, Shame and Self-Doubt," he demonstrates how the most fulfilled professionals aren't doing different things - they're looking for different things in what they already do.
What we'll cover:
- Reframe Your Work: Discover how shifting what you're looking for transforms your experience
- Enhance Engagement: Break through emotional barriers by finding meaning in current responsibilities
- Create Lasting Impact: Build practices that connect daily actions to deeper purpose
This keynote is perfect for:
- Teams who achieve objectives but still feel something is missing
- Talented professionals who question whether their contributions matter
- Leaders who want to create cultures of purpose beyond performance metrics
