Give Your Team a Meaningful & Memorable Hour

Being On-Purpose is a live, virtual, personal leadership experience with Kevin McCarthy

Most training gives people more information. Being On-Purpose gives them a clearer sense of who they are, why they are here, and how to bring more of themselves to their life, work, and leadership.

In this live 60-minute virtual program, Kevin will introduce your team to the power of Being On-Purpose. He will guide them through ONPURPOSE.me, a simple but powerful online experience where each person clarifies their life purpose into a memorable 2-word purpose statement.

This is not motivational fluff. It is a practical, personal, and meaningful leadership development experience designed to help people begin ordering their lives from the inside out.

Kevin W. McCarthy is the author of The On-Purpose Person, a book that has helped hundreds of thousands of people clarify who they are and why they are here. Similarly, The On-Purpose Business Person brings the On-Purpose message message to work. This two book series forms the On-Purpose Approach, an integrated approach to life and work.

Why On-Purpose Matters to You?

Team members are not numbers, machines, roles, or job descriptions. They are human beings carrying ambition, pressure, fatigue, responsibility, and the desire for their lives to matter. When people lose connection with purpose, it shows up at work as disengagement, burnout, conflict, low ownership, and quiet quitting.

When team members clarify their purpose, they gain a stronger internal anchor. They can better understand who they are, what they bring, how they contribute, and why their work matters. That has practical value for your organization.

  • Strengthen personal ownership
  • Improve engagement
  • Reduce burnout and cynicism
  • Build trust and understanding
  • Support leadership development
  • Improve decision-making
  • Deepen connection to the company mission
  • Navigate change with greater resilience
  • Create a more meaningful employee experience

When people become clearer about who they are, they often become clearer about how to show up, serve, lead, and contribute. That is where personal purpose begins to create organizational value.

Why This Matters for Your Team

Your team members are carrying more than job responsibilities. They are carrying family pressures, personal questions, professional expectations, changing priorities, and the quiet desire for their life and work to matter.

When people do not know who they are or why they are here, they often default to pressure, performance, people-pleasing, or survival. But when a person begins to clarify their purpose, something shifts.

  • They gain language for their identity.
  • They gain a better anchor for decisions.
  • They begin to see their work as more than tasks.
  • They start connecting their personal leadership, relationships, responsibilities, and contributions in a more ordered way.

Being On-Purpose is their new beginning.

What Your Team Will Experience

In this live Zoom program, Kevin W. McCarthy, author of The On-Purpose Person, will guide your team through an engaging and personal experience that includes:

A clear introduction to why purpose matters
Participants will learn why knowing their purpose is not merely a nice idea, but an anchor for life, work, relationships, and leadership.

Live access to ONPURPOSE.me
Each participant will use the ONPURPOSE.me tool to clarify their life purpose into a two-word purpose statement.

A guided reflection on Being On-Purpose
Kevin will help participants understand what their 2-word purpose may reveal about who they are and how they are designed to contribute.

Live coaching with volunteers
Selected participants may receive live coaching from Kevin to refine, explore, and better understand how to put their purpose to work in everyday life and leadership.

A meaningful shared experience
Your team will leave with a common language for purpose, personal leadership, and living with greater clarity.

Purpose is the Heart of Personal Leadership Growth and Development

People who are clearer about who they are tend to become more thoughtful, grounded, responsible, and engaged in how they lead their lives and do their work. Your team will be introduced to a practical way of thinking about identity, direction, and contribution. And they will experience what it means to start having their life order on-purpose.

In one hour, your team will not solve every life or leadership challenge. But they will begin something important. Their search for purpose and meaning in their life ends. Now they can invest their time, energy, and resources into giving their purpose expression. For some this will be a dramatic epiphany. For others, it will take time to sink in and emerge. The good news is the Being On-Purpose program includes Poured Wisdom, 12-part email course dripped out once every 4 days. That means there’s over a month worth of follow-up reminders and refresher to guide their on-purpose path forward. You’re encouraged to use these emails as agendas for team discussions.

A Special Kind of Team Experience

This is not another productivity session. It is not a personality test. It is not a motivational talk that fades by the next day. Being On -Purpose is a guided personal leadership development experience that helps each person answer two of life’s most important questions:

  • Why am I here?
  • Who am I?

Answering these questions is transformative. Life takes on new meaning and clarity. People listen differently. They appreciate one another better. They lead themselves differently. By connecting the life and their work with their purpose they can see how their life makes a difference on the job and at home.
