The power of missions: Aligning strategy and culture

Abstract

Mission statements by themselves are of very little value. Some companies have good mission statements, but their management teams often lack a sense of purpose. In other companies, management teams have a clarity of vision and enthusiasm that is awe‐inspiring, without having a mission statement. Mission statements in and of themselves are not important — creating a management team with a sense of mission is crucial.
