Your
culture should be a source of passion, pride and inspiration for
your employees, investors and customers. It should encourage
creative decision-making, in order to build commitment and loyalty.
A culture that fosters a positive environment in the support of
individual growth and development.
Building a
Vision:
Both people and
organizations need to establish a strategic framework for success.
Training and Development is a catalyst to
engage in continuous learning and professional growth by aligning programs to the mission,
vision and values. The framework consists of:
-
A vision for
the future.
-
A mission,
defines what you are doing.
-
Values that
shape your actions.
-
Strategies
that focus on your key success approaches.
-
Goals and
actions which guide your actions.
Company
employees who understand the mission and goals enjoy a 29% greater
return than other firms (Watson Wyatt Work Study). Employees want
their work to make a difference, but 75% do not think their
company's mission statement is the way they do business.
(Workplace 2000 Employee Insight Survey).
Building a
Vision Statement:
A vision is a
statement about what your organization wants to become. It should
resonate throughout the organization and help them feel proud,
excited, and part of something much bigger than themselves. A vision
should challenge the organization’s capabilities and shape the
direction for the future.
Vision
Statement Samples:

description of what an organization does. It describes your
business. It is a definition of “why” the organization
currently exists.
