"The challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic prompted many employees, and leaders, to re-evaluate their work life. Now, more than ever, work must be about more than a well-earned paycheck. People want to feel good about their work, to know that their daily tasks are making a positive difference in their community and the larger world," said Brifo.
