VISION, MISSION & VALUES
A workshop that gives your team direction
Vision, mission and values cannot simply be defined by leadership. They need to emerge through meaningful conversation.
We facilitate a focused workshop in which your team develops a shared vision, mission and set of values. The result is a foundation people understand, support and can use in their everyday work.
- Participatory: Everyone has a voice, not just leadership.
- Visual: We make ideas and connections visible as they emerge.
- Practical: You leave with a shared framework that provides real orientation.
THE PROBLEM
Does this sound familiar?
A costly offsite. A packed agenda. At the end, there is a polished vision statement.
But because the process was largely driven by leadership, few people feel real ownership. Six months later, hardly anyone remembers the values or uses them in everyday work.
- Defined from above: Leadership sets the direction while the team remains on the sidelines.
- Too little participation: Presentations replace genuine dialogue and important perspectives remain unheard.
- Little impact afterwards: The result ends up in a document while everyday behaviour stays the same.
The problem is often not the vision itself. It is the process used to create it.

Who is it for?
For leadership teams, HR teams and organisations that want a vision, mission and values people can actually work with.
Not another poster on the wall.
- Sie erkennen sich wieder, wenn...
- Your organisation has a vision or values, but few people can explain what they really mean.
- Growth, a merger or a generational transition has raised the question: “What do we stand for?”
- Your values sound good on the website but are not visible in everyday behaviour.
- You want to develop your organisation’s foundation together with the people who will bring it to life.

You are looking for consultants who simply write your vision and values for you.
Our approach is participatory. The substance comes from your organisation. We create the process that helps it emerge.
THE TRANSFORMATION
A workshop with participation
We facilitate a workshop in which your team develops, agrees on and articulates its vision, mission and values in one day.
No lengthy consulting process. No ready made result from a consultant. The space belongs to your team, and the result comes from the people themselves.
- Professional Facilitation: We guide the group through the day, bring all voices into the conversation and keep the process focused, using our Visual Facilitation approach.
- Strengthened through visualization: The process takes shape live as a visual, for example through Graphic Recording. This makes abstract ideas tangible and easier to understand.
UNSER ANSATZ
Methodes for participation
We know the moment when a new vision is presented and everyone politely nods while mentally switching off.
In more than 20 years of facilitation, we have learned how many different perspectives can become one shared foundation.
Three approaches shape our workshops:
- VF Action Steps: Our signature approach. We start with your deeper purpose and move step by step towards vision, strategy and concrete goals.
- Theory U: Especially powerful when real renewal requires reflection, deeper listening and space for something new to emerge.
- Design Thinking: A strong approach when vision, mission and values should be developed collaboratively and iteratively, with the people involved at the centre.
HOW WE WORK
Three steps to a shared direction
We start with a free initial conversation, with no obligation. From there, we develop the process that fits your organisation and your goals.
1. Listen and understand
In a free initial conversation, we clarify where your organisation stands, who should be involved and what your vision, mission and values need to achieve.
2. Develop together
In a facilitated workshop, your team works through vision, mission and values until a shared language emerges in which people recognise themselves.
3. Embed and bring to life
We capture the results visually and help make sure your shared direction does not disappear into a document, but provides orientation in everyday work.
YOUR NEXT STEP

There is nothing you need to prepare. Bring your questions and together we will make the next steps clear.

FAQ
Die Vision beschreibt, wohin Sie langfristig wollen, die Mission Ihren Auftrag im Hier und Jetzt, und die Werte, wie Sie zusammenarbeiten. Im Workshop entwickeln wir alle drei so, dass sie zusammenpassen. Auf Wunsch verdichten wir das Ergebnis zu einem gemeinsamen Zielbild, das die Richtung für alle sichtbar macht.
Wir starten mit einem kostenlosen Erstgespräch, gestalten einen auf Ihre Situation zugeschnittenen Workshop und moderieren ihn so, dass alle Stimmen einfließen. Mit Visual Facilitation machen wir den Prozess live sichtbar, damit abstrakte Begriffe greifbar werden und im Gedächtnis bleiben.
a. Mit der richtigen Vorbereitung, einer klaren Dramaturgie und konsequenter Moderation ist am Abend das Leitbild erarbeitet, verabschiedet und getextet. Das gelingt, weil wir nicht bei null starten: Im Erstgespräch klären wir Ausgangslage und Beteiligte, sodass der Workshoptag ganz der inhaltlichen Arbeit gehört.
Am besten nicht nur die Führung. Je breiter die relevanten Perspektiven vertreten sind, desto stärker trägt die Organisation das Ergebnis später mit. Im Erstgespräch beraten wir Sie, welche Zusammensetzung zu Ihrem Ziel passt.
Weil sie oft von oben verordnet und zu abstrakt sind. Wenn Menschen nicht beteiligt waren, fühlen sie sich nicht verantwortlich. Unser Ansatz setzt auf Beteiligung und sichtbare Bilder, damit aus Worten gelebte Orientierung wird. Die Wirkung dahinter erklärt der Beitrag Die Visualisierung von Zielen, Werten, Mission oder Vision.
Oft ja. Vision, Mission und Werte sind häufig der Startpunkt einer umfassenderen Begleitung, von der Workshop Moderation über die KI Transformation bis zur Organisationsentwicklung. Gern denken wir den passenden Weg mit Ihnen zusammen.
