statements of intent
Announced future actions
Statements of intent are formal declarations of what someone plans to do or achieve.
In legal and business contexts, they outline proposed actions or goals without creating binding obligations—a company might issue a statement of intent before entering negotiations.
In education, applicants write statements of intent explaining their purpose and aspirations.
The phrase emphasizes deliberate planning: Her statement of intent made clear she would pursue the promotion aggressively.
