Author Peter F. Drucker provides the following good advice in one of my favorite book's of his, The Five Most Important Questions You Will Ever Ask About Your Organization:”
Every mission statement has to reflect three things:
- Opportunities
- Competence
- Commitment
In other words, he explains:
- What is our purpose?
- Why do we do what we do?
- What, in the end, do we want to be remembered for?
How well does your mission statement meet Drucker's recommended three requirements?
