Mandates?• Most employees
don’t know what’s mandated by whom or why.
• You can’t accomplish what you don’t know.
• Confusion causes inaction or wasted resources and frustration.
Bryson, 2011

Mission, Vision, Values
All organizations are led by a guiding vision
(Bennis, 2003)
Mission: Reason for existence; Purpose.
Vision: Where are we going?
Values: How will we behave in achieving the vision & mission?

Mission Clarity?The American Red Cross, a humanitarian organization led by volunteers and guided by its Congressional Charter and the Fundamental Principles of the International Red Cross Movement, will provide relief to victims of disaster and help people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies (2010).
The American Red Cross prevents and alleviates human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors (2012).

Lost Organizations - Ethics A lack of vision for what they were there to accomplish, a lack of values anchoring their work. And from that, a lack of understanding of how to incorporate the results-focus of vision and values into the heart of everything they do. Because vision and values are all about end results (Gottlieb, 2007).

One Key To Success
• “The key to success for public and nonprofit organizations (and for communities) is the satisfaction of key stakeholders.”
Bryson, 2011• Doesn’t that apply to
for-profits as well?
![Page 10: Strategic Planning Pt 2 - Mission](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062404/554c5c0fb4c905282a8b531a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Department of “Why?”• Start with purpose• Construction of a “purpose
network” or “purpose expansion”• Choose the purpose that fits your
new sense of purpose• Let that purpose be your guide• Always keep asking yourself,
“What is our real purpose here?”• Change your purpose when it’s
appropriate, but not whimsically.
Bryson, 2011

You Get What You Measure
• Purpose exploration shows the connections between:– Actions and
outcomes – Means and ends – Influences and
resultsBryson, 2011

Deming – Org Diseases• Lack of constancy of purpose• Emphasis on short-term profits• Evaluation by performance, merit
rating, or annual review of performance• Mobility of management• Running a company on visible figures
alone• Excessive medical costs• Excessive costs of warranty, fueled by
lawyers

Deming - Obstacles• Neglecting long-range planning• Technology dependency• Examples over solutions• Making Excuses• Believing management skills can be taught in
classes• Reliance on quality control rather than
employees• Blaming workforces (15%) for mistakes
when Org Design & management (85%) causes unintended consequences
• Inspection over product quality

Purpose Mapping
Bryson, 2011
![Page 16: Strategic Planning Pt 2 - Mission](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062404/554c5c0fb4c905282a8b531a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Higher Purpose Levels• Act as visions, missions, or goals
guiding lower-level actions• Guide knowledge exploration activities• Show where changes be needed• Serve as the basis for strategy
formulation• Expand the search for options from
which strategies and actions might be selected
• Keep people from “jumping to solutions” and fighting over the wrong things Bryson, 2011
![Page 17: Strategic Planning Pt 2 - Mission](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062404/554c5c0fb4c905282a8b531a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Lower Purpose Levels
• Serve as the basis for strategic programming• Guide knowledge exploitation activities in
fairly stable technological and stakeholder environments
• Provide the focus for process management and improvement activities (TQM, ISO 9000, Six Sigma, Lean Six Sigma, etc.)
• Show where tight-coupling makes sense – around key processes
• Show where most people’s attention should be focused most of the time
Bryson, 2011

Organizational Design?• Consider the
organizational change you’ve been through at current or previous employers, at Siena Heights, and even in organizations you volunteer at.
• What was the experience like and did it work?
![Page 20: Strategic Planning Pt 2 - Mission](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062404/554c5c0fb4c905282a8b531a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Mission = Purpose• Who are we?• What need are we
meeting?• How do we know what
the needs are?• What do we respond to
stakeholders?• What is our philosophy,
values and purpose?• How are we unique?
Bryson, 2011
