What is your personal mission statement?
Not everyone has a mission statement or personal mantra. However, a career minded individual who has taken charge of their own development typically has a 5 year career plan, and has written out their core values and their mission statement. Doing so makes it easier to identify like-minded opportunities that provide a symbiotic match for an employer/employee relationship. In business, especially when entering leadership, this is an important question to ponder.
"My mantra is that 'people who shine from within do not need the spotlight.' I feel that it is incredibly important to be a humble leader and I take this mission statement very seriously. I want my team to be in the spotlight rather than being the kind of leader that takes credit for good work."
"I am not sure that I have a personal mission statement; however, my mission is to always treat people with respect and kindness. Kindness will always win, and people appreciate the gesture."
