Overview

If you're like the average business person, you want to be less stressed and more productive in your work. And you need help! Creating Your Business Vision provides a simple, step-by-step guide to bring about dramatic improvements in your work, your team, and your organization.

Whether you're an author, coach, consultant, corporate executive, creative, doctor, entrepreneur, nonprofit leader, lawyer, pastor, or professor, developing a vision for your work will finally give you the clarity and focus you've been looking for and give you the freedom to do what only you can do.

Most organizations have a vision statement somewhere in a file or on a conference room wall. Yet, unfortunately, these vision statements seldom serve as an energizing guide toward exponential growth and remarkable success for the organization.

A vision is energizing. It’s enlivening. Vision is the guiding motivation for all great human efforts.

My problem was not vision – I didn’t understand how to get focused and stay focused on the vision. I was not communicating vision effectively. To address these challenges, I developed a tool to help me think through and write out my vision. My experience a business vision was transformational.

Realizing the importance and potential of the business vision tool for leaders in diverse markets, I compiled my experiences and the process into this simple, step-by-step guide.

In reality, Creating Your Business Vision is less a book and more a career planning experience. I intentionally made it short so you could read it in one sitting.

In the book, I will coach you through:

1. The story of a struggling leader and how to find clarity on what matters most in your work.
2. The basics of vision and how to create a career, position, team, or organizational vision.
3. A four-step process for identifying where you are NOW, and how to get from there to where you want to be.
4. A step-by-step process for leading your team through vision development
5. Planning templates, Word documents, and PDF documents that will make it easier for you to create your plan and keep it up-to-date.

You can do it!

I now have greater clarity and purpose in my work than ever before. And I’m able to create very specific plans to move toward the enormous goals of my vision – daily, weekly, quarterly.

Creating my business vision the best business decision I’ve ever made. And it will be for you too!
