Does my family have a Why? Simon Sinek

One of the questions that I love that I often get asked is: I know that a company can have a why an organization can have a why does that mean my family as a why?

The answer is, of course any individual has a why and a group of individuals that come together then that collective is also a why just like the organization just like the company absolutely a family has a why the family has founders mom and dad and the family has employees.

The kids and there are certain values that we want to pass on to our kids how we do things around here this is how we do things in this household absolutely there's a combination and that why is that beautiful overlap between mom and dad.

It's the combination of their why's that give the family their why and I've heard stories of some families who once they've articulated their family why they've actually had it written on the plaque and they hang it on the wall for all the kids and all the family to see to remind everybody why this family exists why we do we do and what we care about and what we believe how we do things and the values that we see important and the kids are given all kinds of bonuses and rewards for upholding those values so absolutely as a family a family has a why and the way you come at it is the exact same same way you come at it for any group of people or organization
