Does your team understand WHY?


Have you ever been tired of having that age-old battle with someone over APPLE VS PC? 

As you go through the list of why you feel apple products are “better” you run out of ideas and simply just know that you believe in the brand and don’t know how to project that feeling? 

Well you’re not the only one; the Apple team’s success is largely due to the ideology of belief. What am I talking about? Check out this video below by Simon Sinek on Ted Talks, he explains his model of “why people don’t buy what you do, they buy why you do it”(Sinek).



He breaks down the critical success factors behind Apple’s team  and why consumers believe in their brand. The video emphasizes on the idea that consumers don’t necessarily care about what service you offer rather WHY you offer it. Does your team really know WHY they are working 40-60 hours a week on this quarter’s project? Have you ever felt that your team members were not all on the same page and didn’t have clear objectives in mind?

Sinek explains that this is  the foundation of why many teams and organizations fail to reach their peak performance, understanding the WHY is crucial. Take some time to watch this video it will change your perspective on how to better focus your team and business!

Feel free to share your thoughts and own experiences below! 

Happy Watching!
