Abstract: Corporate purpose has become a global phenomenon in recent years. Increasingly, businesses are expected to "produce profitable solutions to the problems of people and planet, and not to profit from producing problems for people or planet" (World Economic Forum). However, the literature on how companies can build purpose into their corporate DNA is still very nascent.
