Meaningful Work in a Changing World

In a world that is constantly changing, meaning and purpose are two essential aspects of life that can quickly become elusive in the chaos. Given the many hours we spend at work, an undefined sense of purpose there will only magnify that lack of meaning in our lives.

We estimate you can complete this course in 8.5 hours (but not all in one sitting!).
