Overview:

Just as organizations have visions, mission, and goals, so do their members. In this activity, you will identify and communicate your own personal vision and goals and craft a corresponding mission statement.

Your vision, goals and mission statement will form the basis of the leadership philosophy that you are going to develop in a later assignment.

"A vision states what the organization aspires to become in the future. A mission reflects the organization's past and present by stating why the organization exists and what role it plays in society. Goals are the more specific aims that organizations pursue to reach their visions and missions." (https://opentextbc.ca/strategicmanagement/chapter/vision-mission-and-goals/
