Purpose - why do we exist?
Perceptions - what does the market believe about us?
Position - Where am I positioning in the market
Practices & Proposition - is my yes a yes and my no a no?
Personalities - how do we look, feel and communicate? Is it consistent with our principles?
Principles - what do we believe?

When the wind changes direction, how do we learn to set a better sail?
