Statements and Vision Statements - Unleashing
Purpose
Mission Statement Creation
- To create your mission statement, first identify your organization's "winning
idea".
- This is the idea or approach that will make your organization stand out from its
competitors, and is the reason that customers will come to you and not your
competitors (see tip below).
- Next identify the key measures of your success. Make sure you choose the most
important measures (and not too many of them!)
- Combine your winning idea and success measures into a tangible and measurable
goal.
- Refine the words until you have a concise and precise statement of your mission,
which expresses your ideas, measures and desired result.

Vision
Statement Creation
Once
you've created your mission statement, move on to create your vision statement:
First identify your organization's mission.
Then uncover the real, human value in that mission.
Next, identify what you, your customers and
other stakeholders will value most about how your organization will achieve
this mission. Distil these into the values that your organization has or should
have.
Combine your mission and values, and polish
the words until you have a vision statement inspiring enough to energize and
motivate people inside and outside your organization.
