The Eastham Group, a Fairfax business strategy consulting firm, recently shared a blog explaining the importance of an effective strategic vision. Having a clear understanding of what you want your business to accomplish facilitates operations that work towards those goals.

A strategic vision outlines what your organization hopes to accomplish and the values it holds. Companies often define this vision through a vision statement and mission statement. The mission statement is typically a short declaration of your company's fundamental purpose, while the vision statement expands on this purpose with greater detail. Both statements are generally no more than a paragraph each, making it easy to show employees and clients alike what to expect when working with your business. These statements clearly explain your goals and how you intend to reach them, laying the groundwork for more effective growth.

An effective strategic vision can help your business grow in several ways. When all of your employees understand what they're working towards and why, they may feel energized and more willing to commit to their role in making those goals a reality. This can improve productivity and innovation on a day to day basis. It also creates meaning for your company, demonstrating its reason for existing and continuing to operate, which can help give employees a greater sense of purpose. When you clearly state your mission and goals, everyone is held to the standard of excellence outlined in those statements. They also collectively understand the impact of their work on the future, which uniquely bridges the present to the future. Finally, a clear strategic vision differentiates your company from others who do similar work, which can attract clients with whom your mission resonates.
