Mission and Vision Statements
Why it is important to establish your vision and mission before you begin your administrative internship?
In my opinion, the relevance of having a clear and definite vision and mission in place prior to beginning one's administrative internship cannot be overstated. For purposes of this discussion, a vision will be taken as that mental picture one possesses with regard to a given undertaking. On the other hand, a mission in my view is essentially a proclamation of the key purpose of a particular undertaking. To begin with, a personal vision and mission statement will give me some sense of purpose. It will help me develop the motivation I need to complete my internship. With a clear and concise vision and mission, I am convinced that I will not waver as I pursue that which will...
By ensuring that I start with the end in mind, the vision and mission statement will ensure that I execute the tasks at hand with commitment and zeal. It will help me move in the right direction as I seek to acquire the relevant skills in the course of my administrative internship. Closely related to this, it is also important to note that a vision and mission statement will also to some extent enable me to identify deviations from my
personal goals so that I can take corrective action if need be. From time to time, I could wander in the wrong direction especially with regard to the actual purpose of the internship. Should this happen, a well-developed vision and mission statement is likely to put me back on track.
