vision statements
Organizational future declarations
A vision statement is a brief declaration of an organization's long-term aspirations—where it wants to be rather than what it currently does.
Companies craft vision statements to inspire employees and signal ambition to stakeholders: Our vision is to be the world's most customer-centric company.
Unlike mission statements, which describe present purpose, vision statements point toward an idealized future.
Often criticized as vague corporate language disconnected from actual operations.
