Bibliography Includes bibliographical references.
Summary The more employers try to tell employees where to find the meaning in their work, the less likely people are to find it. An authentic sense of purpose is discovered, not imposed, so meaning-making should be a grassroots process. But first, managers and employees must learn how to talk with one another about it. Research shows that four barriers make such conversations difficult. Here's how to overcome them in your organization.
