Are you in the majority of people who would prefer to be engaged in meaningful work? A recent survey by Philips found that more than two-thirds of working Americans are willing to take a salary cut to work in a job that allows them to apply their personal interests.Â
I am leading a Twitter chat next Tuesday, October 1st on behalf of Philips – one of the world’s largest health and well-being companies.
