$ 795.00
What does your organization's vision statement say? Does it impact your daily function, or even your annual goals? Many vision statements are misconstrued as advertising, or a plan for "the higher-ups," or something that's a little unrealistic or unachievable. For most managers, vision statements don't play a role in getting work done. Yet, a vision statement can be a powerful part of an organizational strategy that can focus work efforts, assist in difficult decision-making, and supplement performance standards. This one-day workshop will:
- Sort out the purposes of mission, vision, and values
