A vision statement is often broad, future looking, and acts as a strategic guiding tool for an organization to strive for ultimate satisfaction of stakeholders. However, a mission statement is alternatively more focused, looking to gain buy-in for strategic purposes and culture building, an internal stakeholder tool. A Project Management Office (PMO) should strive to ensure that organizational goals align with both the mission and vision statement, helping them to easily identify projects that are a good fit. Additionally, it is easier to unite a team when they are clear on the objective from the start, and everyone is on the same page (Toledo, 2013).

A vision statement should be a future oriented on what the organization is going to strive to become (Aguinis, 2013). This statement should be set for about five years in the future. The Centura Vision Statement is “Centura Health will fulfill a covenant of caring for our communities with excellence and integrity to become their partner for life.” (Centura, 2014). Agunis (2013) states that the eight characteristics to a good vision statement are it should be brief, verifiable, bound by a timeline, current, focused, understandable, inspiring, and a stretch.

Thank you for sharing those vision statements. I certainly consider each of these visions unique for their company’s purpose, yet similar in how they express characteristics expected of their constituents and leaders. The first word I noticed in your post was from Abraxas Drug Treatment’s vision statement. Abraxas Drug Treatment used the word “empower” to describe how they encourage adolescents to make changes for themselves concerning behavior, attitude, and beliefs.

The novel uses religious ideals to link Gatsby’s striving for wealth and success to Daisy. For example, the language states that when Gatsby is walking with Daisy, “the blocks of the sidewalk really formed a ladder and mounted to a secret place” (110). The language tells of a mystical “secret place” that appears in front of Gatsby and Daisy. Moreover, the magical place reveals itself to Gatsby when he and Daisy are walking. This supernatural place can only be reached through mystical and magical means. Gatsby can only reach this heaven-like place when he is with Daisy because Daisy represents everything he wants to achieve in life. In addition, Gatsby has built up who Daisy is so much, he feels as if when

Without a Mission and Vision statement the company is missing key components to measure it’s long term success, are much need parameters to keep the company in line when things get chaotic. A

The vision statement does meet the criteria outlined in the chapter it provided people with awareness of what they want their organization to be, short and reasonable. I wouldn’t make any changes its

Any successful organization in in the 21st century should have a mission and a vision. When an organization has a foundation and a purpose for existence, they will have the basic qualities of a successful establishment. To follow through with a mission, a vision must be created. A vision is based off of a company’s purpose for existence and formation of long-term goals. Without goals, an organization has nothing to work for and no reason to become successful. While working at Safeway, I was aware of the mission of the company and the vision that the company had.

Both statements make sure that the leadership team, management, and employees know the current, present, and future goals of the organization. Having substantial mission and vision statements will inspire employees to support and promote the organization’s goals. “Strategic direction is a course of action that leads the achievement of the goals of an organization’s strategy” (“WebFinance, Incorporated” 2011, para 3).

Sherrus, that is so true and I agree with you on that. The vision statement helps the individuals to dig deep into the reason for the mission. As some would say whole heartedly. While on the other hand, the mission statement gets right down to the nitty-gritty, short and simple. The mission is straightforward.

Vision, mission and goals of an organization will determine the direction that will be addressed by the organization. Without the vision, mission and objectives of the organization's performance would go not in accordance with what is expected and less obvious and easily easily swayed by external circumstances.

A vision is basically the target goal for the company’s future. After reading the Mystic Monk Case, I came to the conclusion that the vision for the company is to earn enough profit to be able to purchase a Ranch called Irma Lake. In the case study, Father Daniel Mary states his vision, “We beg your prayers, your friendship and your support that this vision, our vision may come to be that Mount Carmel may be refounded in Wyoming’s Rockies for the glory of God”. In this statement, the Irma Lake Ranch is located in what he refers to as the Wyoming Rockies. The mission statement essentially is what is happening in the company at that time

A company's vision is a "general statement of its intended direction that evokes emotional feelings in organization members." (Dessler, 2003). The mission statement determines the type of business it will be by setting the purpose for the company, and

Vision Statement: We want to create value for our customers so as to enable them achieve their vision.

A company’s mission statement specifies how the firm intends to compete and serve their customers (Hitt, Ireland, Hoskisson, 2013, p.18). The vision and mission provide the foundation for an organization’s strategies (Hitt et al., 2013, p. 18). The company’s objectives should be inspiring and relevant to all their stakeholders (p.18). Ford’s vision statement addresses the concerns of their stakeholders and their ability to enhance the firm’s

Vision is defined as the image that the organization aspire to became in the future. In order to develop a vision, it is important to ask how will the corporation look like “x” years from now if they accomplish their objectives? Thus, this vision will essentially set directions for the organization. There are some useful principles that makes a great vision such as, it should
