2.2.7 — Application Exercise

This exercise is designed to translate your conceptual understanding of vision into a concrete expression of future reality. Your task is to write a single, well-crafted paragraph that describes the future state you are committed to building — not what you hope to pursue or explore, but what will exist once the vision has been achieved.

Your paragraph must communicate clarity, finality, and conviction. Avoid tentative language such as “I aim to,” “I hope to,” “I plan to,” or “I will try.” Instead, use declarative statements that reflect commitment and inevitability. Describe the outcome as if it has already become part of the organizational identity — measurable, tangible, and undeniable.

As you write, ensure your paragraph implicitly or explicitly addresses the following elements:

• Outcome — What exists in the future that does not exist today?
• Beneficiaries — Who is positively affected, and how does their experience improve?
• Impact — What meaningful and lasting change does this future create?

Your objective is precision, not length. A powerful vision paragraph should be concise yet vivid, ambitious yet grounded. When completed, it should feel like a statement that directs decisions — not a sentence that requires explanation.

Once finished, read it aloud:

• If it sounds uncertain, rewrite.
• If it sounds complex, simplify.
• If it sounds generic, sharpen.

A vision is not merely written — it is declared.
