The New P&L speaks to Markus Kramer, co-author of ‘The Guiding Purpose Strategy’

Presented by

Paul Spiers, Founder, The New P&L - Principles & Leadership in Business Podcast series

About this talk

Talking about ‘Purpose’ – a brand’s Purpose - is increasingly de rigueur within the business community today. However, sometimes a large gulf exists between a brand vocalising its commitment to its defined Purpose and it then authentically and enthusiastically weaving it into the heart of its culture and delivering on it every day. This week, The New P&L speaks to Markus Kramer, Managing Partner at Brand Affairs and co-author of ‘The Guiding Purpose Strategy – a Navigational Code for Growth’. Markus has built a career working with some of the most well-known and respected global brands including Aston Martin, Harley-Davidson and Ferrari - helping them to deliver brand and commercial value through rediscovering and aligning their Purpose. We discuss with Markus what defines ‘Purpose’ in a business context, how you measure the depth of a brand’s and its employees’ commitment to its Purpose and the commercial business case for it, as well as whether Purpose can play a positive role in helping to reignite genuine technological innovation as we move into the fourth industrial revolution. www.markuskramer.net

We believe business needs a ‘New P&L’: one that is focused as much on ‘Principles and Leadership’ as it is on ‘Profit and Loss’, because we know that if your Principles are right and aligned with your purpose, and your Leadership has clarity of vision and is strong, focused and empathetic, then your business will be in profit and not in loss in so many ways. Each week on The New P&L podcast, we interview a diverse range of entrepreneurs, business leaders and social impact investors on their views and opinions on the importance of Principles and Leadership in business, discussing how we can all work towards building more ethical, productive, collaborative and ultimately, successful and principled businesses - ones that encourage great, inspirational leaders and motivated teams. www.principlesandleadership.com
