We encourage you to write and rewrite your Vision Statement until it perfectly represents your organization and reads so naturally it feels like it’s always been there.
For now, do your best and write down your FSD (First Sh*tty Draft).
And remember, crafting the perfect Vision Statement is not a one-person assignment.
We highly recommend bringing your team in on the task.
Doing so will give them ownership of the company’s vision while aligning and uniting them to transform your intention into reality.
Now, it’s your turn:
Drop your Vision Statement in the comments below, even if it’s an FSD (First Sh*tty Draft).
Our team will give you actionable and insightful feedback if you need it.
More importantly, you never know who you may inspire along the way.
