Hubert Joly, former Best Buy CEO, offers a simple yet powerful framework for leaders to shape a meaningful vision. He says the right purpose lies at the intersection of four circles:
1️⃣ What the world needs
2️⃣ What you are good at
3️⃣ What you are passionate about
4️⃣ How you can make money
When these circles align, purpose moves beyond profit, and becomes a force for transformation. At Best Buy, this shift helped redefine the company’s role and unlock growth that was both human and sustainable.
👉 Where do your four circles overlap today?
