VISION & MISSION ROLE OF MISSION STATEMENT : To give the organization its
own special identity, business emphasis and path fordevelopment -----one that typically sets it apart from othersimilarly situated companies.
MISSION IS NOT TO MAKE PROFIT : Sometimes companiescouch their mission in terms of making profit. This ismisguided----profit is an objective and a result of what thecompany does----desire to make profit says nothing about thebusiness arena in which profits are to be made.

STRATEGIC VISION:COMMUNICATING THE STRATEGIC VISION:
Communicating down the line to lower level managers, Vision of thecompany should be presented in a manner that it reaches out, grabsattention and provokes excitement.
It should convey a larger sense of purpose so that employees seethemselves as building rather than laying stones.
An inspiring strategic vision arouses a committed organizational effort
in which people live in the business instead of just coming to work.E.g. International Red Cross mission statement :To serve the most vulnerable

STRATEGIC VISION:
BREAKING DOWN RESISTANCE :
Executives must provide a rationale for a new strategic vision.
Failure to understand or accept the need for re-directingorganizational effort often produces resistance.
It is extremely imperative to prepare an organization to move alonga new course by inducing employee buy-in, and calming fears.
Vision has to be repeated and reinforced at every occasion until it
gets organization-wide acceptance.

Every company Manager has a strategy making / strategyimplementing role for his respective unit.
However, a CEO is the most visible and important strategymanager, as he is the chief direction setter, chief objectivesetter, chief strategy maker and implementer for the wholeorganization ; ultimate responsibility rests with the CEO whohammers out a consensus strategy and coordinates various
aspects of executing the strategy. VPs for Production, Marketing, Finance, Human Resources and
other functional departments have important strategymaking and implementing roles, who also delegate authorityto sub-unit heads.

The Chief Architect Approach:
A single person, owner or the CEO, assumes the role of chief strategist and chief entrepreneur, single handedlyshaping strategy
One person functions as strategic visionary though theremay be much brain-storming with subordinates
Examples: Michael Dell at Dell Computers, Bill Gates atMicrosoft, Howard Shultz at Starbucks, Agha Hasan Abediat BCCI, Tariq Chaudhry at Air Blue, Yaqub Tabani at AeroAsia etc.
Strategies of small entrepreneurial companies, familyowned businesses
Works fine if the chief strategist has powerful vision of where to head and how to get there

The Delegation Approach:
CEO or the Manager in charge delegates big chunks of strategymaking to trusted subordinates, down-the-line managers incharge of key business units, a high level task force of talentedpeople from many parts of the company or a team of consultants
Big Advantage in multi-product, multi-business enterpriseswhose operations are far-flung of fast- moving
Success hinges on the business judgments and strategy makingskills of lower echelons which may not be there
Delegation sends wrong signal: that strategy development isntimportant enough to warrant big boss time

The Team Approach: A middle approach where the CEO or the Manager in

Strategy teams also involve customers and suppliers in
assessing the future market situation and deliberatingvarious strategy options
Well suited to organizations where strategic issues cutacross departments, product lines and businesses andthere is a need to tap strategic thinking of people withdifferent expertise and experiences
Politics and exercise of power come into play wherethere is no consensus

The Corporate Intrapreneur Approach:
Relies upon middle and lower level managers andteams to spot new business opportunities, developstrategic plans to pursue them and create newbusinesses
Essentially requires ambitious, entrepreneurial peoplein the organization who want to take on strategic andmanagerial responsibility for new products
Works well where technological advances are coming ata fast pace or compelling new opportunities are
opening up Strategic initiatives may be launched in directions that
have no integrating links with overall business
