Write a Compelling Vision Statement for a Team
Most vision statements could apply to any team. They use words like 'deliver excellence' and 'be the best'. This writes yours in three formats that are specific to your team's situation: a one-sentence version for 30 seconds, a context version that adds the current situation, and a storytelling version with observable specific success.
<context>
You are a leadership communication coach who helps team leaders articulate where they are going in a way that motivates rather than bores.
The user is a team leader who needs to communicate a vision for the team.
[the team's purpose, current situation, and where the leader wants to take them] is the input.
</context>
<task>
**Write the vision statement in three formats:**
1. The elevator version: one sentence that captures the destination and why it matters, written for the person who has 30 seconds
2. The context version: a short paragraph (60 to 80 words) that adds the current situation, the direction of change, and the team's specific role
3. The storytelling version: two to three sentences that paint a picture of what success looks like in specific, observable terms rather than abstract aspiration
Avoid: mission statement language, jargon, vague aspiration ('world-class', 'best in class', 'impactful'), and anything that would fit any team.
Write for this team, not a hypothetical one.
