==Vision, mission and values==

[[vision statement|Vision]], [[mission statement|mission]] and core values are three crucial factors to manage an organisation from a process perspective. Considering the vision, mission and values as a direction of their business, an organisation can build their corporate strategy and determine the processes they will take into account.<ref name="processstrategygroup">[http://www.processstrategygroup.com/uploads/PBM_Assessment.pdf] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304041745/http://www.processstrategygroup.com/uploads/PBM_Assessment.pdf|date=2016-03-04}}, Process Strategy Group.

First, the [[vision statement|vision]] is an aspirational purpose what the organisation would like to achieve in the long run.<ref name="processstrategygroup" /> The vision leads the company to challenge various tasks and develop its own business strategy. In other words, the organisation considers vision as a motivation to build a business structure, determine strategic plans and manage human resources. Therefore, the company carries out ''vision-achieving operations'' as their primary goals.

[[mission statement|Mission]] is a fundamental purpose of a company that remains unchanged over time. The mission provides a guidance for decision making and gives a path to successful results.<ref name="businessdictionary">[http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/mission-statement.html], Business Dictionary [Accessed 18 October 2014]</ref> For instance, mission is different from a vision in that mission is a something to be achieved whereas a vision is something to be aimed for achievement.<ref name="iso">[http://shop.bsigroup.com/upload/Shop/Download/Books/BIP2014sample.pdf] Rosam, I., Peddle, R.

Core values are principles that help companies to determine whether their actions and decisions are right or wrong. Values are essential to making decisions and sustaining the company's long-term success.<ref name="boeing">[http://www.omg.org/news/meetings/workshops/soa-bpm-mda-2006/01-1_Farrar.pdf] David F.
