\u201cA vision is a dream with a plan.\u201d Verne Harnish<\/p>\n
Years ago, I was part owner of At Home Radon\u00ae, a radon testing and mitigation company in Greater Cincinnati. We started with a broken-down van, a few testing devices and a phone number. We grew that little company into a premier service provider in Greater Cincinnati. How? We knew what we wanted. We had a strong mission, a vision of being the best, most reliable radon company in Greater Cincinnati and a road map to get there.<\/p>\n
Owning a radon company was not on any vision board I created for myself, but building organizations around a strong sense of belonging and a compelling vision ALWAYS was. It always has been. I had done it before and this would be no different. We did just what we set out to do, grew it to profitability and became the most trusted and #1 radon company.<\/p>\n
I coach a lot of leaders who are doing the same thing – growing teams and organizations toward the greater good. They are creating a place for individuals AND the organization to flourish under a common mission and vision. They are building strategy around personal and organizational best. I believe so strongly in this, it’s what I’ve built my entire coaching and consulting practice on. It can be summed up in these three words: MISSION + VISION + STRATEGY<\/p>\n
Starting or persevering through building and growing organizations or even personal goals is hard work. We get tired, discouraged or burned out. Fear and doubt creeps in.<\/p>\n
Tired + set backs + hard work + no vision \u00a0= give up<\/p>\n
Tired + set backs + hard work + awesome vision = taking a break, recharging & getting back at it.<\/p>\n
There is a BIG difference between the two scenarios. With no vision, we perish.<\/p>\n
This pandemic has tested us all. We\u2019re all weary. We\u2019ve all have heartache and even great loss. We’re all working hard(er). It’s been a huge setback.<\/p>\n
