The Family
Judgment

利女贞。
The family. The perseverance of the woman furthers.
Image
— Great Image
风自火出，家人，君子以言有物而行有恒。
Wind comes forth from fire: the image of the family. Thus the superior person has substance in their words and duration in their way of life.
Six Lines
— Bottom to top
Modern Readings
— Interdisciplinary
Career & Management
Rear-base building, internal HR system, founder equity contracts, ESOP design. Without a stable backbone, the front line cannot fight — speak the hard words early, build the firewall.
Psychology & Cognition
Cultivate self and household first (xiu shen qi jia). Tend to family-of-origin and partnership; in teams, clarify the core members' rights and duties.
Decision Guidance
Words with substance, ways with duration (yan you wu er xing you heng). Strict-but-warm beats lax-and-easy.
Western Parallels
— Cross-cultural
Confucian classic 'rectify oneself, regulate the family, govern the state' echoed in Western 'private virtue precedes public office'; Edwin Friedman on family systems theory applied to organizations; Stewart Friedman on 'total leadership' integrating home and work.
