EBBF Podcast Episode 9: Personal Paths and Tools to Meaningful Work and Workplaces

June 10, 2019, in Audio > Podcasts, by

The Ethical Business Building the Future organization, otherwise known as EBBF, is a not-for-profit that aims to promote moral and spiritual wisdom and principles found in the teachings of the Baha’i Faith and the great religious traditions of the world, such as the principles of justice, respect, trustworthiness, integrity and unity.

#discoveringhow is EBBF’s podcast series where you can hear personal experiences and insights from EBBF members — each episode offers you stepping stones, fresh ideas, and the personal learnings of people who believe that ethical business can and should build the future.

On today’s program we learn more about practical strategies some EBBF members use to find meaningful work or make their current work meaningful.
Alex Cabon explains how difficulties have prepared him to find meaningful work. Payam Zamani offers concrete examples of putting his company’s values into action. Stephanie Akkaoui Hughes talks about action labs, a methodology to interact explore and experiment with the application of meaningful ideas.

Inspiring podcast with practical sounding examples: supportive sessions of goal-setting/reflection for entrepreneurs, days of service of one’s choice on paid leave from one’s day job, and extreme challenges promoting significant growth. Each one of these EBBF podcasts showcases people engaged in or preparing for meaningful work – with the kind and of energy and vision that I hope to help inculcate in the keen and capable junior youth and youth in the English bilingual high school program where I provide native language support in Hungary. Thanks again, folks!
