Anatomy of a Vision Statement

Leadership Strategy - Lead The Way With Your Talents
| |
| Today, change is showing up globally like a volcano that has been merely spewing smoke and now has erupted. The signs were there. The “too good to be true” mortgages with little or no down payment; credit card accessibility used with promises that the user would pay them off in the future, yet the debt just kept mounting to outlandish proportions; trying to have it all by working harder and longer with little time left over to develop relationships and self care. With all the stress internally and externally it was inevitable for the bubble to burst. |

5 Not So Obvious Business Plan Mistakes to Avoid

Creating Goals or Building Castles In The Sky
| |
| That statement implies fanciful daydreaming - unrealistic, fantastic.

Two Secrets to Creating Abundance NOW!
| |
| The first secret to creating abundance is learning what abundance isn’t. Abundance is not happiness. Abundance is not determined by our bank account, the square footage of our home, or the make of our car. If it were, then we would see wealthier people behave as though they are happier and the middle class demonstrating signs of misery. Yet hundreds of experiments show unequivocally that, once basic needs for comfort have been met at a modest, middle class level, the correlation between wealth and happiness disappears. Poof! Chasing after money in the hope that it will buy us more happiness, intimacy, or fulfillment is a waste of energy based on an invalid hypothesis. |

10 Strategic Steps To Take To Achieve Your Business Vision, According To Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach
| |
| Highly successful businesses today have developed visions for their organizations and have the vision integrated throughout the company. However, far too many businesses, even some that may be considered successful, have no clear vision and no real plan for the future of the company. There are some people that have a great fear of strategic planning and of developing a clearly defined vision.

This fear and the lack of confidence can be minimized by following strategic steps I have used and that my clients have used through strategic thinking business coaching. Here are 10 recommended strategic steps to follow. |

Are YOU Walking The Talk?
| |
| When you create vision and mission statements for your company you are communicating to your customers, vendors, prospects, employees, and the entire outside world. When we create these visions and missions, we are creating value statements, and as an owner or manager you have to deliver, with those values, results! I like to call that “Walking the Talk”. There is no doubt that companies that consistently “Walk their Talk” do better than those that don’t. |

Are You Genuinely A Leader Or Merely A Manager?
| |
| Without managers, the visions of leaders remain dreams. Leaders need managers to convert visions into realities. For continuous success, organizations need both managers and leaders. However, as most seem to be over-managed and under-led, they need to find ways of having both at the same time. Perhaps the best way to handle this paradox is for managers to aim to be managers when viewed from above, leaders when viewed from below and to remember that the need for leadership grows as we move up the organization. This is only one of the challenges that can make working life fun.
