A vision represents a broad strategic position that the organization seeks to reach within a 3–5-year time frame. Goals are more specific, and the time frame for a goal is typically one year. Vision statements are often one-sentence statements intended to pro- vide readers with a general understanding of what the organization seeks to become at some future date. A vision provides focus and represents a guide for all organizational activities to follow. Vision statements are strategic, in that a vision provides a world view of what leaders want the organization to become. Though often 3–5 years out into the C o p y r i g h t 2 0 1 9 .

Visions symbolize dynamic statements that represent the organization’s view of what it is possible to achieve. Because the future represents the unknown and unpredictability, the further out in time, the less predictable are the competitive and economic conditions. Organizations modify vision statements as they move forward to calibrate the vision with what is achiev- able within the circumstances confronting leaders. For individuals, a vision states the individual’s destination point within a 3–5-year time frame, though shorter time frames are often common, as the individual’s circumstances may vary.

Only after the careful consideration of the findings from these analyses will the organization identify the strategic goals and the strategy to achieve these goals. Strategic goals represent areas for an organization to focus on and to achieve. The preferred type of goals is SMART goals (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely).
