All too often, the participants position purpose and profit as opposing priorities \u2014 and, in doing so, sideline purpose as an indispensable driver of strategic alignment and sustainable performance.<\/p>\n<p>A corporation with no avowed purpose other than to earn profits for shareholders is a hollow endeavor \u2014 one with no guiding star for formulating strategy and little to encourage the intrinsic motivation that is critical for employees to perform at their best. At the same time, highly idealistic statements of company purpose that managers and employees perceive as disconnected from their day-to-day work likely function as little more than window dressing.<a id=\"reflink1\" class=\"reflink\" href=\"#ref1\">1<\/a><\/p>\n<p>At an enterprise level, purpose and profitability are both vital components of a strategic alignment equation that defines a company\u2019s raison d\u2019\u00eatre, how it is striving to fulfill its purpose against the demands of the marketplace, and how it defines and measures success.<\/p>\n<p>While profit is an important measure of a company executing its purpose well, it can never be the purpose itself. An enterprise\u2019s purpose is what it exists to do as an organization, and why doing it well matters. A well-understood and meaningful purpose should be a unifying force common to all within and without the enterprise. It helps employees intuitively understand why they matter in the larger context.<a id=\"reflink2\" class=\"reflink\" href=\"#ref2\">2<\/a> It also provides the ultimate definition of strategic success, which should never be confused with measures of success \u2014 including profitability.<\/p>\n<p>Many executives struggle to articulate their company\u2019s purpose meaningfully, limiting their potential to create strategic alignment within their enterprise. All other factors being equal, better-aligned businesses tend to perform better than their poorly aligned peers.<a id=\"reflink3\" class=\"reflink\" href=\"#ref3\">3<\/a> In this article, I\u2019ll outline an approach for how leaders can strategically align purpose and strategy to drive sustainable performance.<\/p>\n<h3>The Validating Role of Market Demand<\/h3>\n<p>No matter how well articulated a company\u2019s purpose is, it is only as valuable as the degree to which it is valued externally by others, as evidenced by the demand for the enterprise\u2019s offerings in any exchange of value. Otherwise, the enterprise risks becoming inwardly focused and unsustainable.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-authors\" id=\"article-authors\">\n<h4 class=\"article-authors__title\">About the Author<\/h4>\n<div class=\"article-authors__bio\">\n<p>Jonathan Trevor is an associate dean and professor of management practice at the University of Oxford\u2019s Sa\u00efd Business School.
