For decades, business leaders have been told that profit should always come first—that maximizing shareholder value is the ultimate goal. But history tells a different story. Companies that chased short-term profit at the expense of purpose—like GE, Enron, and Sears—ultimately crumbled, while those that prioritized mission, innovation, and stakeholder trust continue to thrive.

So, is purpose really at odds with profit? Or is it the secret ingredient to lasting success?

In this episode of The Purpose and Profit Podcast, Dr. Ty Wenglar challenges the outdated notion that purpose and profit pull in opposite directions. Instead, he reveals how mission-driven businesses consistently outperform their competitors, driving higher engagement, customer loyalty, and long-term profitability.

✅ Why the "profit-first" mindset of the past led to corporate failures
