In Cheney et al. chapter seven, Leadership Old and New, p.201, they write about the characteristics of vision statements and how they create "effective" leadership. If the organization is going to succeed in being effective, they need leadership that understands the goals of the company and creates a pathway towards achieving success. In Box 7.11, Characteristics of Leadership Visions, they list some characteristics for a vision statement to be effective: (here are just a few) "Content: The vision... is future oriented, but respects the past; embodies standards of excellence and high ideals... Delivery, Style, and Use: The vision... is visual; it captures the imagination with word pictures; uses figurative language, such as metaphors, contrast, spin, stories, and catchy phrases." By developing a vision statement that embodies the concept of 'efficiency' leadership can go a long way in making sure that the entire organization is on the same path.
