Group Work

There is no one best vision or mission statement for a given
organization. Analysts feel that KKD needs a clear vision and
mission statement to prosper. Writing a mission statement that
includes desired components—and at the same time is inspiring
and reconciliatory—requires careful thought. Mission statements
should not be too lengthy; statements under 200 words are
desirable.
INSTRUCTIONS:
 Take 15 minutes to write a vision and mission statement for KKD.
Scan the case for needed details as you prepare your
statements.
 Join with three other classmates to form a group of four people.
Read each other’s statements silently. As a group, select the best
vision statement and the best mission statement from your group.
 Read those “best” statements to the class.
