The vision statement for my simulation is aligned with Microsoft’s corporate vision.  About an analysis article, Microsoft’s vision statement shows that the company presents its business and computing products as tools that people, and business organizations can use for their development. The first component of the vision statement partly defines Microsoft’s target market, which is the global market. Instead of selling software products to individual customers only, the company also sells its products to organizations. The second component of Microsoft’s corporate vision statement shows what the business intends to do. For example, the company aims to provide products that assist customers toward the achievement of their full potential, which is specified in the third component of the corporate vision. Thus, Microsoft’s corporate vision presents the target market, what the company’s technology products do, and what customers can achieve through such products. (Gregory, 2019)

The simulation company of Red Panda Technologies’ mission statement aligns with my operational experiences in the Navy. The purpose of our mission is to explain to our customers who we are and the expectations of the services we will provide. Mission statements are important and remind the employees and leadership of the quality and excellent customer service we must provide consistently. For example, on board the aircraft carrier that’s deployed to remote locations that’s difficult to receive parts needed for aircraft. The jet engine shop onboard knew the purpose of the mission and acknowledge the importance of quality engines to the squadrons that are tested and ready for operations without failure. Our customers onboard the ship were Maintenance Master Chiefs of each squadron with daily communication on upcoming high time components, scheduled, and unscheduled dates of engine removals to support the demand when called upon.

PROS- Provides a clear strategy process and lines of communication. Affords coordination and control of various business activities. Readily accepted and understood as the process is well established and widely used. Works relatively well in stable environments. CONS- Rigid and inhibits flexibility. Top-down, one-way communication feedback. Assumes that the future can usually be predicted based on past data. Separates elements of AFI framework so that top management (analysis and formulation) are removed from line employees (implementation). Where Best Used- Highly regulated and stable industries, such as utilities, e.g., Georgia Power in the Southeast United States or Area, the state-owned nuclear operator in France, Government, and Military.
