Businesses can differ greatly in the services they offer or Goods they sell. One thing that all businesses have in common is that they have a mission or vision statement that they use to define themselves and what they are about. The Arrow Head Medical Center in Colton, California has a mission statement that is not strong, is very generic, and for the reasons is probably why it is not displayed anywhere on their website. To give them a stronger identity to the community, and more tangible goal to reach for internally, it is necessary to create a new mission statement for this organization. The most recent mission statement for the Arrowhead Regional Medical Center I coul find was located on a 2012-2013 strategic plan.

Humana Inc. Introduction Humana began as a nursing home called Extendicare, which was founded by two lawyers from Louisville, Kentucky named David A. Jones Sr. and Wendell Cherry in 1961. Extendicare’s expansion was swift in the first seven years due to the sale of stocks; the pair added new services to their patient care plan and opened forty new facilities, making it the leading nursing home organization in the country (“History of Humana Inc.-Funding Universe,” n.d.). From 1961 to 1971, also the birth of Medicare, Extendicare attempted to diversify the business by purchasing mobile home parks but it was unsuccessful (“History of Humana Inc.-Funding Universe,” n.d.). In 1968, Extendicare purchased their first hospital and utilized

Introduction Is the University of Arkansas an elite/prestigious Institution of Higher Education? The realm of higher education is extremely competitive. Today’s day and age the objective is to reach the masses, or as Peter D. Eckel puts it “massification” (2008). It has lead to greater competition due to the variety of institutions and approaches to higher education (2008). The diverse options present a challenge to institutions, like the University of Arkansas, one that causes them to compete for students while still trying to maintain a high standing.
I feel ASD’s mission and values are apt for students of today’s world. Teachers should help children learn to their best of their ability but also be flexible as no one knows what the future holds (Excellence). There is so much happening every moment. In today’s world, where a child’s innocence is so easily corrupted, I hope students can grow to become flowers among weeds, to use their own judgment and sense of self to know right from wrong and to do what is best for their future (Integrity & Respect). They should grow up having a feeling of worthiness and belongingness as an independent individual (Compassion).
My mission in life is to improve both my country and the world through my aptitude in mathematics and my altruistic nature. Although mission statement contains an albeit strange combination of skills and interests, I am confident in my ability to fulfill my dream. I also believe that Acadia University would play an integral role in achieving my dreams due to the stellar academic programs and wonderful school community. Becoming an actuary is one of my major life goals because I love enduring an arduous challenge. Growing up, I had always found Mathematics to be one of my weaker subjects, and at one point gave up all hope in achieving higher than a B in any exam.
Mission statements are typically future focused and are not essentially constructed on present-day. They should be a reasonable viewpoint from which to look down the road. These statements should not bound the development of the organization’s premises through incorrect
Rarely do high school students think of anyone other than themselves. The focus of most teenagers is directed toward themselves; their success, their failures, their needs and wants. Fortunately, I have been a part of school community that encourages students to not only think of others, but to be proactive in effecting positive and lasting change as well. The remarkable experience I and my classmates have had at Covenant Day School through the ContainIt project helped us to discover the responsibility we have for our neighbors. Only two years ago a group of students and teachers first visited the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota to see what help could be provided to make meaningful and lasting change for their community.
