What Is the Vision Tool?

Use our Vision tool to plan, organize, and document your organization's Vision. The tool has four pages to keep everything clear and organized. 

Teams on paid subscriptions can customize their Vision to use the terms and sections that work best for their needs.

Watch the video below for a general overview of the tool.

How a Documented Vision Supports Your Organization

Having a detailed, documented Vision shared with your whole organization offers the following:

• Transparency — Your team members and other Ideal Stakeholders understand the organization's definition of itself and the expression of its highest, long-term aims.
• Purpose — By fully understanding the organization's Vision, teams and individuals can ensure they align their daily work, Rocks, KPIs, and more with it.
• Clarity — A clear and compelling Vision is a combination of Focus Filters everyone in the organization can use to filter their decisions through.

In short, if we genuinely want something, we’re wise to embrace a set of Focus Filters that are clear and compelling. Filters make it possible to determine what everyone in our company should say Yes to and when they should say No. When you and your team are collectively willing to say No to everything that doesn’t make it through your Focus Filters, we’re confident you’ll be on the path to building an extraordinarily focused, aligned, and thriving organization.
