Very few people or companies can clearly articulate WHY they do WHAT they do. By WHY I mean your purpose, cause or belief - WHY does your company exist? WHY do you get out of bed every morning? And WHY should anyone care?

I can't stand those people, speakers in a room, they say this all the time, If I can just help one person in this room, I've done my job.
