Why?
@_khalidm16Introduction Brand Vision Brand Identity Brand Assets C Channels Conclusion
“A well-conceived vision consists of two major components: core ideology and envisioned future. Core ideology, the yin in our scheme, defines what we stand for and why we exist. Yin is unchanging and complements yang, the envisioned future. The envisioned future is what we aspire to become, to achieve, to create -- something that will require significant change and progress to attain.”- Jim Collins & Jerry Porras

“People don’t buy what you do. They buy why you do it. What you do simply serves as the proof of what you believe.”
“The goal is not to do business with people who need what you have. The goal is to do business with people who believe what you believe.”- Simen Sinek, How Great Leaders Inspire Action, TEDx

“In addition to vision-level BHAGs, an envisioned future needs what we call vivid description -- that is, a vibrant, engaging, and specific description of what it will be like to achieve the BHAG.”
“Identifying core ideology is a discovery process, but setting the envisioned future is a creative process”- Jim Collins & Jerry Porras
