"Mission statements are worthless"- my thought
I recently read an article about a powerful mission statement in Inc. magazine. It talks about Holstee's mission statement.
I believe that you have to live those values. If they are simply written on paper they are meaningless. Companies tend to formulate these dry statements that non one can remember or apply.
For example, employees are our number one priority. What do you do with that? Especially when there is the first sign of difficulty and you get rid of people. Meaningless?
BUT if it is written and you follow it and make it a part of the culture then it is probably worth gold. I would bet that that would require quite an effort to achieve.
Today's question is:
'Do you have a personal mission statement that you can convey in 30 seconds or less?"
