closePurpose Strength Model® is a new measurement model created to assess, diagnose and enhance the generation of a shared purpose in organizations. It analyzes the organizational levers on which to enhance the development of an organization with purpose, the degree to which workers have internalized it, the variables that accelerate this internalization and the impact that all this has on the organization.

The Model
Purpose Strength Model® is the result of an R+D project called Measuring the Purpose Strength in which 1,500 employees and 350 managers of 20 companies in 4 different countries were surveyed, and whose purpose is to delve deeper into the development of the organizations with a strong sense of purpose and develop an international measurement standard in this field of knowledge.
The measurement model has been developed by the lecturers Álvaro Lleó (Tecnun), Carlos Rey (UIC) y Nuria Chinchilla (IESE) with the support and collaboration of the Chair Management by Missions and Corporate Purpose of UIC Barcelona, DPMC and Corporate Excellence - Centre for Reputation Leadership.

Purpose Strength Index® MEDIR PARA ACELERAR LA ACTIVACIÓN DEL PROPÓSITO CORPORATIVO
En el umbral de la post-pandemia, nos enfrentamos a un nuevo paradigma de dirección. La velocidad que imprime la digitalización y la necesidad de que equipos globales tomen decisiones coherentes de forma asíncrona, pone de relevancia el valor estratégico del propósito corporativo. Sin embargo, ¿cómo podemos pasar de la declaración a la activación del propósito? ¿cómo pasar de ser una organización, que se dice, con propósito a una que realmente vive su propósito?
Las últimas investigaciones nos han permitido avanzar en el desarrollo de una herramienta con la que diagnosticar y potenciar el grado de activación del propósito y desplegar así todos sus beneficios.
Deep into the Model
Purpose Strength Model® is based, on logic to generate purpose-centered organizations, and, on the other hand, on measuring them in order to improve the company. Building on from these two topics, the model offers an evaluation and a complete diagnostic report that identifies the strength of the corporate purpose, that is, to what extent the purpose of the organization is shared and internalized by its stakeholders.
Through this model, we offer an assessment and a complete diagnostic report to begin a process of transformation towards an organization with a strong sense of purpose. Model implementation method:
- Measuring the pulse of the organization, surveying managers and workers, guaranteeing their anonymity and the confidentiality of their responses.
- Making a diagnosis as to the degree to which an organization has a shared purpose, contrasting the information from managers with that from workers and also compare it with that of similar companies.
- Designing a custom action plan to start a process of transformation towards an organization with a shared purpose.
As this infographic of the model shows, the Purpose Strength Model works on three dimensions that share a purpose: knowledge (their ability to illuminate the heads of stakeholders), identification or motivation (the ability to enlighten their hearts) and the contribution or impact on the action of employees (the ability to guide them on a day-to-day basis).
How do we measure this?
- We take the pulse of the organization, surveying managers and workers, guaranteeing their anonymity and the confidentiality of their responses..
- We carry out a diagnosis on the degree to which an organization has a shared purpose, contrasting the information of the managers with that of the workers and we also compare it with that of similar companies.
- We present the results proposing a personalized action plan to start a transformation process towards an organization with a shared purpose.
