Purpose
For any transformation journey to be successful, it has to start with an understanding of the Purpose, Mission, Vision and Impact of the team or enterprise.
About the service
The transformation journey starts by building an understanding of the Purpose, Mission, Vision and Impact of the team or enterprise. We then use lean methodologies to convert these into a strategic plan for the business. This includes identifying tactical and operational priorities in a structured way, establishing a “golden thread” that links the work that people do to the company vision and goals.

Purpose
Impact
When a team carries out its mission to serve
its purpose, it will achieve its vision and create the desired impact.
Impact
Impact is about the positive difference that the enterprise will make to the broader environment and stakeholders.
Vision
An enterprise’s vision is an inspirational statement about where it aspires to be in the future. It tells everyone what future success looks like.
Mission
A team’s mission should be about “how” the purpose will be served. It should include statements that describe how the team is adding value, how it is going to make a difference. It should include the desired behaviours associated with serving a purpose.
Purpose
Purpose is all about “why” the enterprise exists, its reason for being. A truly high performing team is clear about its purpose and every member in the team is personally connected to it.
​
When individuals connect to team purpose, they understand why they do the work they do each day and are inspired to do it. An inspiring, connected “purpose” then becomes the “North Star” for the team. When things aren’t going well, it can be leveraged to reset the team on the right course. When things are going well, it can be used to celebrate success and build pride in the team.
