Defining your mission and values involves a collaborative process that includes key stakeholders, such as employees, management, and sometimes even customers. Here are some steps to consider:
Identify the core purpose of the organization and its long-term goals. Engage in discussions to determine the principles and standards that are important to the company. Draft statements that are clear, concise, and reflective of the organization’s identity. Ensure that both the mission and values align with the company’s strategic objectives and business model. Communicate the mission and values to all employees and integrate them into the company’s operational processes.
