Mission and vision planning
How do you tell the difference in meaning between mission, vision, and
objectives?
What mission and vision makes the most sense for their organization? What
ways are available to you of insuring the message is remembered and lived on a daily basis in the organization.
Many organizations have a vision that is really a mission,
or vice versa. Many also have a slogan on the wall that few people can
remember or identify with. At the end of this program, participants will
understand the meaning of these terms and examples of organizations that
use them well. Further, participants will participate in special exercises
to construct meaningful missions and visions that are remembered and used
daily by everyone.
Component departments within a larger organization can also
use this activity to form the mission and objectives for their department,
that is strong, resonant, and well synchronized with that of the parent
organization.
The Bottom Line
What you'll be able to:
- Create affinity diagrams and interrelationship digraphs relating customers to
products
- Assess discussions to locate what organization actually does, and intends to do, and any
disconnects
- Diagnose that planned visions and missions are quality-based and
empowerment-based
- Use the "silence" method of creative selection
- Use the "sound resonance" method of emotional selection of exact
wording
