CGIC Micro Credential: Purpose Driven Organizations
October 22, 2025, 9:30 AM - 1:00 PM
New Micro-Credential: Purpose Driven Organizations
Session Overview:
The challenges facing society and the environment make it clear that traditional governance models based on shareholder primacy and profit maximization are no longer sustainable. Modern governance emphasizes an organization’s responsibility to a broader group of stakeholders — employees, supply chains, communities, and the environment. Those that ignore this shift risk reputational harm and long-term instability.
Purpose Driven Organizations (PDOs) represent the future of governance. In this session, Paul Dubal will examine why purpose is central to organizational success, how it drives values and culture, and how it anchors strategy and decision-making across diverse stakeholders. Participants will explore the benefits of generating value beyond financial returns and how organizations can integrate purpose into governance, leadership, and brand identity.
The session will also introduce ISO 37000 – Governance of Organizations Standard, the first truly international benchmark for good governance. With purpose as its core principle, ISO 37000 provides a practical framework for organizations transitioning to a purpose-driven model. Real-world examples will illustrate how PDOs create positive impact well beyond their products and services.
Delegates will leave with practical insights, tools, and inspiration to support their own organization’s journey toward becoming a sustainable, purpose-driven enterprise.
