◦What does it take for your vision to be transmitted?
2. It comes from within
It isn't forced or phony Just posting the vision up in the lunch room, or titling your letterhead (although they are good things to do) won't change people's attitudes. A good vision comes from the heart, it is tied to the real passions and desires of those in leadership.
When your values in life - your heartfelt desires for your business line up with your vision and purpose the 'infection' cannot help but spread.

Something that is contagious tends to spread Authentic Edwin Encarnacion Jersey , even to places you didn't expect. In your business when you set in place a heartfelt vision you may be surprised at the response.
At Gloria Jean's Coffees' Conventions over the years we see the enthusiasm of staff and franchisees to new initiatives driving the vision forward, but you would expect that! After all this is what conventions are all about - motivation, excitement and celebration. What we also found was the unforced almost emotional response from our suppliers, bank representatives Authentic Joe Carter Jersey , insurance companies and other stakeholders. People who had not experienced contagious, heartfelt vision and purpose before.
Customers actually notice it and respond in kind. I received a reminder note the other day for my water filter to be serviced. From a previous experience with the company I was reluctant to ring and book this in. When I finally did, the whole tenor of their service had changed. A new owner maybe? Certainly a new vision for their company! The receptionist couldn't be more passionate about their product & the service they would provide (at less than the cost of doing it myself I might add!). My attitude has definitely been swayed - if the tradesman lives up to the vision already set, I will be totally won over.
Again at Gloria Jean's Coffees the 'customer connection' is vital to each franchisee's business. In a coffee shop half the equation is good well made coffee Ricky Vaughn Jersey , the other half is a 'welcome home' feeling. The intangible warm and friendly atmosphere where people feel comfortable and relaxed. This in itself is an expression of our vision and values - when guests feel genuinely welcomed they become devoted fans, there day after day.
The fallout from genuine vision will benefit your business - developing goodwill and positive attitudes in places you didn't actually expect.
