It gives me a framework from which to base all of my interactions with students, faculty, and administration.
It defines who we are and what we are here to do. It sets forth the expectations of the college for students and employees.
A Mission Statement is important because it sets the tone for who we are as an organization.
Great answer your answer is exactly what i was trying to say in much fewer words :)
My companies mission statement is important to be because it serves as a guideline for me. Our mission statement serves as a reminder of the importance of my job and the impact I have on a potential persons life. Our mission statement is displayed throughout the college as a reminder of what our job is.
A missions statement is vital to the success of a company because employees need to have a vision and also know the direction that the company is headed in. It can also assist in companies staying on track of itself.
To me our schools mission statement is what and how we are to conduct our selves with our fellow co-workers and all or our students.
Mission statements sets the tone. It's all about what the company and their employees stand behind.
the mission statement is important and lets me know if the values of the company are in line with my values. I would not want to work for a company who's values I don't believe in or one that does not follow it's values
Aaron,
Thanks, particularly your reference to it being a standard. In fact, the mission statement is very much a baseline of operations and, more importantly, purpose.

Brenda,
Thanks Brenda, we have actually encouraged individual campus departments to craft their own mission statements in concert with, and support of, the institution's corporate mission statement - sort of each areas contribution to the whole. I am curious as to what course participants think about this approach?

The mission statement should speak to the why. Why should I attend your school and what makes you different than any other school.
A mission statement gives us a standard to live by. It sets the course for how we treat our students. Our mission statement is known by all employees. It contains three values that we strive to live by.
It's really important because it allows us to know our boundaries.
My company's mission is very important because it provides prospective students and employees a clear understanding of how everyone is treated with respect and honesty.Value premise also provides a clear statement on what the company values.
It sets the goals and principals for all to follow. All Departments working for what is the best for the student.
My company's mission is important to me because it provides prospective students and employees a clear understanding of what exactly they do. It should show the prospective student how committed the school is to doing the right thing. The value premise allows the school to show the benefits to be gained from attending school at their institution. This will allow the school to gain trust from the student.
I feel like mission statements are guidelines on how to represent your school. I want to make sure that everything I do correlates with our mission statement.
Well stated, Linda. I believe the mission statement should be brief and specific, allowing the prospective student a sense of security and excitement.
