Directions for this discussion which will be in TWO PARTS:

For this discussion, you will place the heading of Part 1 and Part 2 separately so your faculty member and colleagues can easily follow your content.

For this discussion, you will conduct research regarding three statements (i.e., mission, vision, value) that organizations should have created.

PART 1

In one long paragraph, explain to your possible audience (readership) the meaning of a mission statement, a vision statement, and a value statement. You will need at least one scholarly article for the mission, a separate article for the vision, and a separate article for the value statement.
