About Me

Harland Merriam writes about leadership, faith, and the quiet questions that surface beneath visible success.

His book Profit Seeks Purpose: How to Build Wealth Without Losing Your Soul is a modern business fable for leaders who are doing well on paper and quietly wondering if there might be more.

Harland’s work grows out of years of conversations with entrepreneurs, operators, and marketplace leaders navigating the tension between building successful organizations and building meaningful lives. He lives in Florida with his wife, Barbara, and enjoys early morning walks, good conversations, and helping leaders build well and build wisely.
