People are passionate because they are successful and not necessary successful because they are passionate according to Nicola Roberts, head of private clients at Deloitte. 

She admitted to attendees at the seventh eprivateclient Leadership Insight Seminar titled ‘You can buy anything but you can’t buy passion’ held in London last week (04/10/2018) that when she started her career 22 years ago, although she is now passionate about her job it “definitely did not start that way”.
