Complete the following before Thursday at 11:59 p.m. of your local time zone:
A company’s mission statement is often influenced by its formal or
informal culture statement. First, review the SNHU Pet Company culture
statement provided above to help you collaboratively create a mission
statement with your group in the Discussion.
Your instructor will begin the creation of the mission statement by
posting the following within your Group’s thread, “The mission of SNHU
Pet Supply Company is…….”.
Copy and paste the mission statement from the post above your own in
the thread. Then, add one sentence or make one revision that you feel
should be included in the mission statement based on the SNHU Pet
Company culture statement and the ongoing conversation among your peers.
Example: Let’s say we are creating a mission statement for
Suzie-Q Cupcakes. The instructor would start the thread with “The
mission of Suzie-Q Cupcakes is……”.
Student One may write, “The mission of Suzie-Q Cupcakes is to provide customers with delectable treats.”
Student Two would then add to or revise this and post: “The mission of Suzie-Q Cupcakes is to provide customers with delectable treats that put a smile on their faces.”
Student Three would continue by adding or revising; the results would be something similar to “The mission of Suzie-Q Cupcakes is to provide customers with delectable treats that put a smile on their faces. This is accomplished through employee passion and creativity.”
Then, in one to two sentences, explain why you think your added
sentence or revision is valuable based on the company’s culture
statement and what you have learned from the module resources.
For your response post, review the final collaborative mission
statements in Threads A and B. These should be the posts at the very
bottom of each thread. After reviewing each, discuss the following in
Thread C with your peers.
What similarities did you notice between the two mission statements, and why do you think they were similar?
What differences did you notice between the two mission statements, and why do you think they were different?
What do the similarities and differences you noticed help you understand about the importance and impact of collaboration?
Were there certain parts of either mission statement that you really liked? If so, what were they, and why did you like them?
