Vision is something beyond apparent, some image that a person builds in his mind for future.
Mission is the way to reach the vision.

A vision is a long term goal tat you want to achieve.
A mission is the way or methods adopted to achieve tat particular vision.
This is the simplest definition possible.
Simple With an example....
in cricket
vision- Winning (depends... with grt margin scre or wkts)
Mission - ur batting and bowling performance ( contains good SR,avg scre,best econ bowling.,etc)
The mission is a statement of who were are and what we do.
The vision is a statement of who we want to be -- and the strategic path we intend to take to get there
Let me share my understanding here.
Vision means what you would like be seen as, where you would like to be at.
Mission means how would you like to do that.
Next comes, goals and/or objectives, the strategy, followed by Planning, execution, monitoring, evaluation, review.
Hope this suffices.
Hi Kezee,
it's Just a coincidence that I came across this blog today and got interested in the topic here;
Well in simple terms I would say the difference between vision and mission is that, the vision is the bigger picture and future focused while the mission is Immediate focus on the present. It is the vision that defines where the organisation needs to be and the mission is the Road Map that will take you there, ofcourse not to forget the Values to follow the road map.

Just answer yourself to these questions and you will find the answer
1. Vision is something which the company wants to be in a period of time.
(This can change from time to time).
2. Mission. This is nothing but to reach the vision what is that the company need to do. It is noting but the company is in a mission to achive its vision and while going out on this mission what need to be done to achieve the vison.

Hi Kezee,
Mission: Short term goal, which is the way to reach the destination - Vision.
Vision: Long Term Goal, Is the Destination.
Eg:
Want to Become a Good Doctor in a Society is Vision ( long Term Goal - The Destination)
To the Reach the destination have to travel. To become a good doctor have to get good marks in Exams, Place and Practice in a hospital to Express the skills in the society ( short term Goal Which reaches Long Term Goal)

Hey...
The basic difference between the two is
Vision: it is the superset of mission, mostly the language is philosophical and it basically gives an idea as to where the company wants to be(sees itself) in the long run.eg. like in interviews they ask us where do u see urself in the next 15 yrs...it is something like that. but for a company long term doesn't mean 15 yrs,it is much more than that.
MISSION: it is more realistic as it describes the path (objectives, purpose etc) you will take to achieve your vision. it basically answers: what are you here for?(purpose) ; how will you accomplish your vision?
