LEADERSHIP AND CONVERGENCE

¿Do you think the power of vision have been overestimated or underestimated in giving direction to business?

When I analyze which is the real power or impact of the Vision into giving direction to a business, the first thing that comes across my mind is…Practically it’s the direction by itself, a lot, or at least much more of what I could ever think about it.

Once you establish and define your company´s Vision, which is like the definition of what´s what the company wants to create? , Who they want to be? , How they want to be recognized for? All the actions and projects of the company are settled in order to arrive to that certain point and all the decisions will be taken in order to do it.

Nowadays, I think Vision it’s a very helpful tool for companies to see how they are doing, how far or how close are them in order to accomplish that vision they once settled…that’s why I consider it as a powerful and estimated tool in a company; regardless, you as a leader, or a good manager must think and realize how is the environment, the business, the industry, I mean the actual situation, which can be determinant into your company´s future. Sometimes you know who´ll be, but maybe because of the circumstances you can fell lost at a certain point so…you start over in a different route and you can reach your desired point.

The fact, the Vision, can be overestimated or underestimated I think depends on lots of elements like the company, the sector of the industry it belongs, its managers, the economy, the competition among others.
