Here’s something to think about as you start your work week:

“Good business leaders create a vision, articulate the vision, passionately own the vision, and relentlessly drive it to completion.” – Jack Welch

Having a company vision is most definitely not a new concept, but it is one that is often forgotten and overlooked. The probability of continued success derives from the belief that a certain vision is being fulfilled. Whether you’re at the head of a company, a team leader, or a project manager, relating to a common company or team vision is fundamental.

I’m currently reading a truly inspiring book from Maria Bartiromo, anchor of CNBC’s Closing Bell: “The 10 Laws of Enduring Success”. In her book, she dedicates one of these 10 laws to the importance of vision. “Vision rallies people. Vision is more than rhetoric; it’s deeper than charisma. It is the quality that enables you to be creative, passionate, inspired and productive. With one eye on the future, it keeps you grounded in the practical actions of the present.” – Maria Bartiromo

This week, I encourage you to ask yourself: “What is my company’s vision? What is my team’s vision?”. If you don’t know, inform yourself. If you’re a team leader and have not established a team vision, I urge you to do so. It will change the way you do business and will improve the productivity of your employees.
