After experiencing the devastating 2004 tsunami that hit my island home of Sri Lanka, I went on a journey to discover my ‘Why’.
I realized mine was ‘to Inspire Purpose in people, organizations and the world.’
I passionately believe that if we can help leaders and employees find Purpose and meaning in their work, and help companies find a path to sustainable and inclusive growth - then we can unlock the enormous power of business to do good in the world.
I do that through my best-selling books, my consultancy Conspiracy of Love which advises Fortune 500 companies like Coca Cola, Adidas, Sephora and The Gap, and my keynote speaking.
My work has lead to millions of dollars being invested in causes such as food insecurity for children, racial justice and arts education - and has inspired thousands of people around the world to find their Purpose.
I’d love to chat and say hi!
