By the time we were 4 employees, a mission statement wasn’t enough. We needed a north star. A way to define a future state for our world. I took my executive team to an offsite and said, “What if everyone had Social Tables? What would that world look like?” We needed a vision statement that would serve as our company’s North Star. Something we are all headed toward. After much discussion, and some homemade tacos, we came up with our first vision statement: We envision a world where people come together to achieve great things.
Social Tables' mission, vision & values motivate 50% of Social Tables employees. Comparably data clearly shows that a focused mission statement and cohesive core company values are vital to maintaining employee alignment.
