Writing a Vision Statement
By Mike Cieri, MSIR, Vice President of Mardac Consultants
Writing a good vision statement isn't difficult. Think about what your business does and what, in an ideal world, you would like it to do and how you would like to appear.
A vision statement focuses on the potential of the organization, or what it intends to be. In other words, future-based, and are meant to inspire and give direction to the employees of the company, not anyone outside of the company.
Consider the services and characteristics that your company provides, then imagine how it would be if you provided the very best version of them possible. List those visions, and incorporate them into a brief statement that gives a good overview of the kind of image you want to represent.
