Let's break down each question and identify the correct answers:
1.1 Select one example of what should be reflected in a mission
statement.
A mission statement generally focuses on the core purpose and
values of the organization. It should communicate the company's
purpose, core values, and what it stands for. Based on this:
• a) This example is a bit specific and includes operational
details that are not typical for a mission statement.
• b) This example is more about customer service and
operational philosophy, which are often part of a mission
statement but not the sole focus.
• c) This example is about guiding principles, which can be
part of a mission statement but are usually broader in
scope.
• d) This example focuses on community engagement and
quality, which aligns well with a mission statement’s aim to
reflect core values and purpose.
• e) This example describes the operational culture and
focus, which can also be part of a mission statement but is
more about the operational aspect.
