Where is Allison DuBois when you need her?

So we've just been reading about creating a vision statement for our projects, with a warning not to confuse it with the mission statement. There is a lot to read about it and to think about in how I can help with the creation of one.

I also wonder about how much to use from the readings, which seem to be mostly for big organizations, and apply it to a small business. How can I make this work out and do a good job for the people I am working with?

I asked my contact to have everyone start thinking about mission statements and for them to look at web sites, making note of what they like and don't like about them. So far I haven't heard anything back from them just yet. I also need to call him sometime tomorrow about setting up a time for meeting with them this week.

Yes, the difference between missions and vision statements can be confusing. As for your project, you will be the one to initiate most contact so expect to "take the lead" when you need to.
