Characteristics of a great vision statement
Ch 2 -13
• Specific –your goals need to be
clear and specific. Specificity lets
you focus onyour objectives with
greater precision.
• Measurable –you should be able
to track the progress of your goals.
When you can assess the progress
you’re making, it helps you stay
focused, reach deadlines, and gain
a sense of achievement upon
completing them.
• Attainable –Ideally, your goals
should stretch your skills but still
be achievable. In other words, are
they realistic?
• Relevant –Do the goals you’ve
created align with the needs of
your team and the company as a
whole? If not, you might need to go
back to the drawing board and
come up withsomething different.
• Time-bound –With a deadline to
focus on, there’s less chance of
everyday tasks taking priority over
the longer-term goals your team
has agreed on.
Vision Statement
Writing Tips
•Collaborate -The vision statement should reflect the
character of your entire company, and there's no better
way to accomplish this than to write the statement
alongside key members of your team.
•Write first, edit later -Don't try to write a succinct, well-
crafted vision statement right out of the gate. Put
everything you think of down on paper, no matter how
small.
•Avoid buzzwords and jargon -Plain language is always
more powerful than jargon
•Avoid ambiguity -Vision statements don't have to be
concrete the way a mission statement should be, but
you want to avoid using words that could potentially be
interpreted in a way that changes the entire vision
statement's meaning.

Define your Values
•These are the principles and beliefs that drive
your work and define your culture. Your Values
should reflect your passion, your purpose,
and your priorities.
•They should also be aligned with the needs
and expectations of your Stakeholder.
•To define your values, you can use
brainstorming, surveys, focus groups, or other
methods to gather input from your
stakeholders. Then, you can narrow down your
list to the most essential and distinctive values
that represent your organization.
Values
•The ‘VALUES’ define what the organization
stands for —they are the organization’s core
rules
•They provide bounds or limits of how the
employees will conduct their activities while
carrying out the vision and mission.
•They are statements about how the
organization will value customers, suppliers,
and the internal community.
•Once defined, the values that are important
to the organization should be reflected in
everything done by the employees
Values (contd.)
•Articulating values provides everyone
with guiding lights, ways of choosing
among competing priorities and
guidelines about how people will work
together.
•A values statement reflects the core
ideology of an organization, the deeply
held values that do not change over time.

journey)
•Mission and Vision Statements along with Values set the
general goals and direction for the organization. They help
stakeholders, customers, and employees understand
what the organization is about and what it intends to
achieve
•These statements are far too vague to guide day-to-day
actions and resource allocation decisions
•Mission and Vision Statements are made operational
when they define goal and strategy for how the mission
and vision will be achieved
