If you've seen writer/director Cameron Crow's 1996 film, JERRY MAGUIRE, you'll remember Tom Cruise's character, Jerry, typing vigorously at 1 o'clock AM at the Miami Hilton, fueled by passion. Jerry was writing a Mission Statement.
A large percentage of companies, including most of the Fortune 500, have corporate mission statements.
Mission statements are designed to provide direction and thrust to an organization, an enduring statement of purpose.
A mission statement explains the organization's reason for being, and answers the question, "What business are we in?"
Henning answers these questions and more:
- Do small companies need mission statement too?
- How do I create a mission statement for my company?
- What are the differences between a Mission, Vision and Value statement?
- Should a mission statement be specific, or simply a 30,000 foot view?
Show listener Anonymous asks this question about living-up to a mission statement:
"I've worked at many organizations that had mission statements straight out of Dilbert, and don't live the values they espouse, they're just words on paper that have zero impact on action. Why does this lack of vision-transfer happen from the C-suite down? How can you get companies to wake up in middle management and start walking the talk?"
On the topic of Web Design & Development...
- Why is scope important, or even necessary?
- How do you determine Project Scope?
- In terms of the visitors of a website, it's probably best to know your audience?
- On planning, what about setting objectives? Does this come from asking the hard-hitting questions?
Listener Elbowroom Design in Calgary, Alberta asks this question:
"Sometimes we get great ideas for a website once we're halfway into the development project. By that point, it's not called a good idea, it's just something that gets in the way of meeting deadlines and budgets.
-- What are some ways to shake out the important epiphanies at an early enough stage?"
Join us next week, when we speak with Kate Rutter, a Senior Practitioner at Adaptive path, who will be speaking on EVALUATING YOUR CURRENT WEB SITE.

I sort of sense a country vibe on this Marc by Marc Jacobs Flights of Fancy Leather-based Shopper, but looking at it also tells that it would make of a great downtown city carryall. It also has 70s really feel to it, but the exact fun graphics and colors of this carrier make it a great deal more fun to bring these days. This replica handbags is constructed from dark brown leather in a sort of wrinkled and distressed effect. Though its a bit dull, somehow, the exact multicoloured patchwork style makes it incredibly interesting. This features a cat, resting on the exact branch on the tree, an owl at the exact bottom on the tree, a rabbit, some birds, apple, clouds and heart images. Every on the graphics also has gold-tone rivets for accent. This really is really just a slim Suhali Leather, but it should be enough to carry your shopping items and essentials. Another interesting feature on this wallet are the exact two metal fastening textured handles, which sort of brings exotic appeal on its totality. This Marc by Marc Jacobs Flights of Fancy Leather-based Shopper can surely add color and fun facade to your everyday getup.

I really do appreciate your feedback. I'm still struggling with the technology but I wish everyone all luck with this competition. I've been pinned down with a sick grandchild and today a very sick daughter - both with gastric flu which afflicts us all at this time of year - so this is the first moment I've had to get to the computer rhnyav rhnyav - supra youth.
