Develop a Mission Statement

Select an organization or department of your choice. Your task is to develop a mission statement. The mission statement describes the purpose of the organization, why the business exists. Develop and submit a one to two page paper (excluding title and reference pages) that establishes a mission statement and its meaning to the department or organization:

• Does the mission statement match the current market conditions/needs?

• Does the mission statement reflect the company’s strengths?

• Is the mission statement motivating?

• Is the mission statement realistic?

• Is the mission statement detailed, brief, concentrated and remarkable?
