- Vision: What do you want? Write it down in 10 to 15 words
- Values: What is most important about that vision? What are the values of the vision? Is it growth, is it quality, is it excellence? Write those things down and prioritize them.
- Methods: How are you going to achieve it? What are the actions that you’re going to specifically take? In priority, write them down.
- Obstacles: What is preventing you from achieving that outcome – right now? Write it down. What other obstacles may occur?
- Measures: How will you know if you’re successful? What are the measurements of success? Write it down.
