#1 Vision
The Vision Statement is the most critical element in Strategic Planning.
It must be inspirational, lofty, and ideal. It should also be simple so that every team member can recite it when asked.
Examples:
Our goal is to be the leading specialty retailer of home décor in each of our markets.
To become the premier resource for all those pursuing their creative dreams.
Always Forward…
#2 Mission
Your company’s MISSION is a strategic & dynamic statement that can change over time.
If your company has multiple brands, each brand can have a different mission, but it should always check back to the VISION.
Always Forward…
#3 StrategicObjective
The Strategic Objective must be measurable and achievable within two to three years.
Examples:
To improve profitability and comp store sales growth through inventory optimization and planning
To better serve our customers through a national rollout of highly productive superstores that achieve superior financial results

#4Critical SuccessFactors
The Critical Success Factors support the Strategic Objective.
These factors are to be developed by cross-functional teams within the company.
