A job description need not be limited to explaining the current situation, or work that is currently expected; it
may also set out goals for what might be achieved in future.
Organizational requirements
Basically, an organization is a person or group of people intentionally organized to accomplish an overall,
common goal or set of goals. Business organizations can range in size from one person to tens of thousands.
Vision statements, Mission statements and values of an organization
Vision: Defines the desired or intended future state of an organization or enterprise in terms of its
fundamental objective and/or strategic direction. Vision is a long-term view, sometimes describing how the organization
would like the world to be in which it operates.
Mission: Defines the fundamental purpose of an organization or an enterprise, succinctly describing why it
exists and what it does to achieve its Vision.
It is sometimes used to set out a "picture" of the organization in the future. A mission statement provides
details of what is done and answers the question: "What do we do?"
Values: Beliefs that are shared among the stakeholders of an organization. Values drive an organization's
culture and priorities and provide a framework in which decisions are made. For example, "Knowledge and skills are the
keys to success" or "give a man bread and feed him for a day, but teach him to farm and feed him for life". These
example values may set the priorities of self sufficiency over shelter.
Strategy: Strategy, narrowly defined, means "the art of the general" (from Greek stratigos). A combination of
the ends (goals) for which the firm is striving and the means (policies) by which it is seeking to get there.
