What is very important for Interim Executives is undertaking meaningful work. Meaningful work, in an organisation where values are aligned to the individual executive, is becoming a non-negotiable. One respondent of Watermark’s 2024 Interim Executive Survey said, “My tolerance for misalignment between values and work is lower”. Another respondent is “seeking values-aligned colleagues”, while another is building a career consisting of a “blend of paid work and passion projects”. Meaningful work is the key to longevity as we all live and work longer.

I have yet to meet a person who doesn't want to do meaningful work that aligns with their purpose and passion. Work is part of life, and more people are looking at how they meld the two.
The connection between meaningful work and longevity is a fascinating topic. Research has shown that having a sense of purpose and engaging in work that feels meaningful can lead to a healthier, longer life and career.
