Description
A Life of Purpose guides students in uncovering their core purpose and personal narrative. It helps identify fundamental motivations and shows how to connect one's story to broader commitments to people, place and planet, establishing the foundation for a meaningful life journey.
This four-book series, built on more than three decades of global research and conversations with students, families and educators, provides a comprehensive roadmap for living a meaningful life. The books form a progressive journey: from discovering purpose, through developing excellence, into leadership, and finally creating actionable plans for impact.
Drawing on research by Dr Phil Cummins from CIRCLE Education, a School for tomorrow. and the Game Changers podcast, each volume offers students practical guidance for personal growth and societal contribution. As the leader of the world's largest research program into character education, a lecturer and author in sustainable leadership, and a professor of education and enterprise, Dr Phil Cummins brings decades of expertise in helping people connect purpose to practice.
