How Do I Write A Visiona Nd Mission Statement

Hello
I am supposed to be meet with my boss soon to draft out philosophy, mission and vision statements. Does anyone have samples that I can browse through. I want to be well read so i can bring something to the table...

hi
do not make any ready-made vision. It will be mere words.It will be done better by a copy writer in an ad agency.
You should conduct a long meeting of all senior people make them visualise the future, their values and then a statement will evolve. the English will not be good but the ouput will have value.
later you can polish the English.divide them into team and make them do it. make sure all sections are represented in the meeting.
Otherwise there will be lofty vision staement but it will not be owned by anyone. so do not sit with your boss and make a vision.
Read the book BUILT TO LAST. you will get many samples.

Usually, a vision is the centre point & is supposed to be timeless & enduring. The mission is more about business strategy...the values may or may not link with either.
I agree with Veera. As HR, you can act as the facilitator and ensure that the leadership team gives their inputs.
Still, if you want, go ahead & google some other telecom companies & see what they are working with.

hi
when u sit with your boss and plan your open house pl make sure the open house is held for a full day at least. let the venue be way from office and the setting be informal.There sholud be a feeling of sharing and also openness.
