Your Vision statement is more than a catchphrase; it's a call to arms. As a conscious CEO, making use of your Vision statement as a strategic tool is one of the most powerful ways to align your organization's actions with its purpose.

Over time, and if used correctly, this statement should spur the behaviors and actions that will create the desired future for your organization.
