Every leader eventually asks a deceptively simple question:
What’s my point?
Not what do I do?
Not how do I grow?
But why does any of this matter?
Not how do I grow?
But why does any of this matter?
On the morning of March 28, 2026, Rick Goossen will explore this question and more as a featured speaker at Biz Group Collective, hosted at Creekside Church in Waterloo, Ontario.
The gathering is part of Creekside's Biz Group initiative, a community of Christian business leaders who pursue connection, reflection, and spiritual growth alongside professional excellence. These events help leaders connect Sunday faith with Monday work in ways that are both practical and profound.
Topic: “What’s My Point?” — Meaning, Calling & Marketplace Leadership
Rick’s talk will draw on themes he has explored deeply in past presentations and writings, especially the question of ultimate meaning as it intersects with work, influence, and identity.
At Creekside's March Faith At Work Forum, Rick will guide leaders through questions like:
✔ Why meaning matters in leadership
✔ How purpose shapes decisions under pressure
✔ What Scripture teaches about calling and mission
✔ Why risk and failure are part of faithful leadership
✔ How marketplace leaders can center their work on why it matters, not just what they do
✔ How purpose shapes decisions under pressure
✔ What Scripture teaches about calling and mission
✔ Why risk and failure are part of faithful leadership
✔ How marketplace leaders can center their work on why it matters, not just what they do
This theme is rooted in the idea that leadership without meaning is hollow, and that the best leaders are those who lead with clarity about their calling, not just competence in their role.

Why This Matters for Christian Leaders
Today’s marketplace rewards strategy, execution, and innovation, but those alone do not sustain leaders through failure, ambiguity, or transition.
Exploring purpose gives leaders:
- A foundation to navigate risk
- Clarity in decision-making
- Confidence through uncertainty
- Enduring motivation beyond metrics
- A faith-grounded perspective on success
If you are a founder, executive, professional, or business owner committed to excellence and meaning, this gathering is a chance to step back, reflect, and renew.
Christian leadership flourishes where meaning and practice intersect.
We hope to see you in Waterloo.
