Good Morning Mary Agnes,
Regarding a Mission Statement.....it should be so "short" that the board,
staff, and volunteers should be able to repeat it verbaitim, or at least
paraphrase it. The mission statement only has utility when the board,
staff, and volunteers remember it, use it, and "stick" by it when making
decisions. In other words, if nobody knows it, nobody will use it.
Best Wishes,
Wesley
P.S. It should be short enough to put on the back of a business card. So if
a staff member has a memory problem (does this sound like me?), they can
pull out their business card!
