VMV

VMV stands for Vision, Mission and Values. The VMV statement is a guide to help enterprise progress ahead. How important is the VMV statement to an enterprise? Can enterprise still be able to survive without the VMV? Are there any differences between VMV and slogan? VMV is internal, and slogan is external? Why can't there be synergy so that both parties speak the common language?
People care less about what is said but are interested in results. Why an enterprise not focus more on strengthening execution and producing positive deliverables but developing the VMV?
Besides, easier said than done. If at the end of the day, the enterprise cannot deliver the promise made in VMV, it will only result in negative touchpoint experience.
Below is the VMV of HKU Space (http://hkuspace.hku.hk/about/about.php?action=vmv).
