and Mission
Chapter-2
“A business is not defined by its name,
statutes, or articles of incorporation. It is
defined by the business mission. Only a
clear definition of the mission & the
purpose of the organization make
possible clear & realistic business
objectives”
Peter Drucker
“A corporate vision can focus, direct,
motivate, unify, & even excite a business
into a superior performance. The job of a
strategist is to identify & project a clear
vision”
John Keane
“The job of a strategist to see the company
not as it is …. but as it can become.”
