Acharya Prashant explains that for business leaders to create happy workplaces, the first and most crucial thing is for the business to have a purpose. When an organization is driven by a purpose, money becomes a byproduct or the necessary fuel to reach its destination, rather than the primary goal. The purpose itself is paramount. Since we are worldly, corporeal beings, money is required for any endeavor, even purchasing a spiritual scripture. However, in a purpose-driven organization, money is seen as a tool, not the end goal. When a clear purpose exists, many common problems within a business environment are automatically resolved. Issues like employee retention and attrition diminish because the right people are naturally drawn to the organization's purpose. They do not need to be lured with lucrative offers, and the wrong people, feeling out of place, tend to leave on their own. This reduces the need for a large HR department, constant motivation, or firing underperformers, as the purpose itself drives the right individuals. The CEO's role then shifts from being the chief motivator to the guardian of the purpose. Without a guiding purpose, an organization becomes solely profit-driven, which fosters a culture where employees also prioritize their personal gains, leading to a conflict of interest. Acharya Prashant stresses the importance of being vision-driven and value-driven. He advises leaders to deal extensively in facts and numbers, as they are the gateway to truth. Quantifying material aspects helps avoid ambiguity, imagination, and myth-making, ensuring that internal clarity is supported by external, objective metrics. Regarding hiring, he suggests that leaders should prioritize a candidate's 'center'—their core values and being—over mere skills. Skills can be taught, but building internal substance is a more arduous process. He also introduces the concept of renunciation in the corporate world. While the central purpose must be loved and held immovable, everything else, including brands, systems, and even people who are no longer aligned with the purpose, should be subject to careful analysis and let go of without attachment. Finally, Acharya Prashant emphasizes the need for 'dharma' (righteousness) within the organization. This means that power must be entrusted to the right people. He warns that empowering the wrong individuals is akin to giving power to an unjust ruler, which leads to a culture of self-interest and devious behavior, causing a rot to set in. The right people are often not vocal, so it is the leader's responsibility to identify them and ensure they are rightly rewarded and empowered.
