This breaking news is that organisations can be more successful by having a clear vision. Similar to the idea that managers and leaders need to be good at managing and leading, this should not be new news. That said, there is some good advice for HR professionals in this article and for all managers and leaders. There needs to be a much better translation of organisational strategy into something employees can understand, relate to, and realise their role in. What I find a bit too unrealistic though is the idea of creating a compelling vision that "...must resonate with every member of your organisation." It goes on to say "where every employee feels connected to and motivated by the shared future of the company." The organisation where this happens sounds great, but it does exclude those talented and hard-working people who may have different core values or, shock-horror, want to come to work, do a good job, and get paid. How does diversity and equity fit with this? Creating something that engages and appeals to everyone is practically impossible, and in fact, could end up closing down dissenting voices or those with alternative views and ideas. Having a clear vision is important, if not vital, to retaining talent and driving organisational success. But it should not be done in a way that discourages a diverse workforce, new ideas and the ability to listen to emergent strategy ideas coming from those across the organisation. #vision #values #diversity #strategy #nevereasy
