Creating a Vision (Part 1)
Great new series we start this week and it begins with part 1 today where we discuss at length why it's important to have a vision statement. Creating a vision, whether its personal, family oriented or in the workplace, gives you a path to travel along in order to fulfill certain goals. Think of it like this. We’ve all sat down and dreamed about what it would be like to have X or be able to do X or accomplish X. In those moments that may be a dream but ultimately this could also be a vision for you. We think vision is taking your dreams and putting them into reality. We think vision is painting a picture of what you want things to ultimately look like. We think vision is looking down the road and seeing things differently than they are now. Creating that vision gives you drive and motivation to complete the necessary tasks along the way.
“The Vision is the What, Where, or Who you want the company to become. The Mission is the WHY the company exists, it is your purpose, passion, or cause.” So vision is more about how to create buy-in, inspiration and motivation. It gives us a direction on which way to go as we move forward.
Having a vision statement helps aid in decision making. We talked earlier about creating a vision being personal, family oriented or job related. If you created a vision for yourself to live a healthier lifestyle over the next year, this gives you direction as to what decisions you need to make in order to fulfill this vision. Creating a vision also helps create and define a culture. When the vision is set by the boss, it really lays out how everyone should make their decisions; it fuels the workforce and helps everyone and the company reach its potential.
Thanks and enjoy!
