Vision is the compass that guides us through the unknown, illuminating the path from what is to what can be.
In Focus – What?
When business ebbs and flows, it’s important to continue to have a compelling WHY and Vision for ourselves and our business.
This can help us lean into WHY we exist as a business. Is it to serve a certain # of people, or is it to make a specific impact in your work?
In addition to your vision, what would you say your mission is for 2024?
Questions – So What?
A well-defined vision provides direction, purpose, and alignment for an organization, contributing to several aspects of success, including employee engagement, strategic decision-making, and long-term sustainability.
One notable source supporting this idea is the Harvard Business Review (HBR). In various articles and case studies, HBR has explored the significance of a clear vision in guiding organizational strategy and fostering a shared sense of purpose among employees. For specific statistics or recent studies, you may want to explore the Harvard Business Review's database or other business research databases for the latest insights and empirical evidence on the correlation between a clear vision and business success.
