 ====== Mission and Values ======
-===== Purpose =====
+===== Purpose of Documenting our Mission=====
-**Decision-Making:** When an employee makes a decision on behalf of Nested Knowledge, they should ask, "is this in line with our mission?"
-The goal in describing our mission and values is not to signal to outside what we care about, but to clarify the direction to head in. As we grow, we may consider making our mission public, but at this time an **internal-only** resource is sufficient.
+=== "Is this decision in line with our mission?" ===
+To answer that question, we first need to clarify: what are we trying to build? why?
+The goal in describing our missions and values is to inform decision-making and guide the tone behind branding. As we grow, we may consider making our mission public, but at this time an **internal-only** resource is sufficient.
+Examples of decisions where a mission would be informative:
+  * Should we price-discriminate between small and large businesses?
+    * Is it aligned with our values to treat small businesses differently from large enterprises?
+  * Should we offer contract services?
+    * Does meeting the needs of clients fit into our vision and what we want to accomplish?
