entrepreneurial thought process. The process is broken into three primary components: Why,
What and How. Sinek argues that although we respond to these questions every day, the order in
which we do it determines the quality of our outcomes. To be successful, he notes that our
decision and action process should be guided by the ‘golden circle’ of communication. The circle
visualizes the connection between purpose, our decisions and actions. Purpose is codified in the
‘why’ question and is placed at the centre of the circle. This is followed by ‘why’ with ‘what’
being on the outer most layer of the circle. The orator uses the golden circle to illustrate how
successful people prioritize understanding purpose over their decisions and actions. Sadly, he
argues that unsuccessful people prioritize either their actions (how) or decisions (what) over
understanding the need and purpose (why) of their actions. In such situations, he says failure is
inevitable.
