Creating your Main Visionary Strategic Statements.
Every organization needs to define several fundamental Visionary and Analytical Statements to provide both stability and direction.
These form a vital part of your overall Strategic Picture, as the statements are normally displayed just above your Strategy Map, to demonstrate alignment between the two.

The primary visionary statements begin with the Core Goal, Vision & Mission.
You should aim to have between 3 and 6 primary statements, which can include a slogan or motto and a target market segment.
The "All-In-One" Visionary Statement might be good for publicity purposes, but is much to verbose for an Organizational Strategic Framework Use.
The All-In-One Combination Vision Statement "We want to be the market leader in our field, through improved sales and reduced costs, as the result of prompt quality service and daily work performance improvements, using the resources of our highly valued staff members."

The Visionary Statements must broken down into brief assignable statements which can be Engaged by Every Employee on Every Day.
Common Visionary Statement Examples start with the Core Objective or Core Goal.
The priority decreases in a top-down fashion and is an essential strategic starting point for achieving a full organisational potential.
