    Vision vs Mission

    Before you move on, take some time to see a visual representation of the difference between a vision and a mission.

    Click on the tabs below to see a comparison:

    Vision is like a “see” word. It describes what the organisation aspires to be. It paints a vivid picture of what the world would look like when the mission is successfully accomplished. Vision speaks to the heart for inspiration. It represents the ultimate goal or destination that the organisation aims to reach. Vision guides the organisation’s long-term direction.

    While vision inspires, mission speaks to the mind, guiding significant decisions. It’s about the ongoing actions and efforts that the organisation undertakes. Mission clarifies the purpose and fundamental reason for the organisation’s existence.
