Efron not only makes a profound case for how you need to know why you are in business, but also gives crucial, actionable steps that will certainly lead any organization toward thriving well into the future.

They will discover how they can begin to write their own story that will impact their own business and the world they have a heart to serve."

"Purpose Meets Execution: How Winning Organizations Accelerate Engagement and Drive Profits is a great balance of reflective thought and the need to move business forward through action. Louis does an amazing job getting leaders to answer the tough questions for themselves and their business. Given the agility required in today's environment, it's critically important for leaders to take the time to find alignment; this book helps them do just that."

"Execution on its own isn't enough. And Core Purpose (your "why") in the absence of "how" isn't enough either. Louis shares an important perspective, showing us how to engage both the heart-purpose-and the mind-execution-and how to keep them in balance to drive both culture and growth."

- Cameron Herold, author of Double Double, Meetings Suck, and The Miracle Morning for Entrepreneurs

"Even in today's hypercompetitive business environment, extraordinary companies aren't satisfied solely with making a profit. These trailblazing companies tap into the unifying influence of purpose to outperform and out maneuver their competition. If you're at all interested in catapulting your company to greater heights and inspiring your employees, listen to and act on what Efron has to say about the unifying powers of purpose."

- Shawn Murphy, Author of The Optimistic Workplace; Founder and CEO, Switch+Shift

"In an era where "purpose-driven" has become one of the hottest corporate buzz phrases, Purpose Meets Execution provides a valuable service to business leaders: connecting the dots between organizational purpose and operations. The market is flooded with books about purpose, but few of them unlock the difficult challenge of operationalizing purpose by architecting it into your company's systems and processes. Through copious examples and helpful tools, Purpose Meets Execution helps unravel the mystery behind the financially successful purpose-driven organization."

- Eric Severson, Former Co-CHRO and Senior Vice President, HR Gap Inc.; U.S. Department of Commerce Appointee, United States Department of Commerce; National Advisory Council on Innovation and Entrepreneurship

"Louis Efron's Purpose Meets Execution is an enjoyable book that will inspire the reader to be strategic and intentional when focusing on purpose to drive results. The action items are both digestible and easily executable, and follow from real-world examples that illustrate the importance of a shared purpose in a high-performance work culture. The questions posed at the end of each chapter require introspection, and alone are worth the price of the book!"

- Matthew Fehling, President and CEO, Better Business Bureau

"Purpose Meets Execution provides a refreshing perspective on the topic of business strategy and leadership. Efron does a great job in showcasing a blueprint with which an organization can build a foundation to support high growth, sustainability, and humanity. Stressing the power of influence that leaders have over their company's culture and work environment, the book provides a toolbox of techniques and tools that will drive positive social and economic change as well as business results."
