You have thought through your wicked problem, brainstormed and explored the topic with a diversity of perspective and by analysing the data, you then need to identify your vision or a mission statement. Even a quality improvement project, needs a purpose.

This will need a creative thinker, so if this is not your own skill, find some-one who is a solution finder to explore your data and identify your vision together including your wider team.

A vision tends to guide a direction of travel rather than be a specific goal which will give you the ability to flex and bend to achieve success.

Our vision usually can be divided into the following groups:

• Achievers: Is your vision to be the biggest or the best at something.
• Explorers: Is your vision to know the most about a subject or create new knowledge. This can also be inventing or developing something new.
• Connectors: Is your vision to create a community and network to amplify voices and raise awareness.
• Self Expression: Is your vision to empower individuals to achieve something specific.

Once this has been identified – you can pull together the right team to succeed.
