A mission statement should have key deliverables in it. Something like "School X will become an industry leader that offers complete language solutions to Thai nationals. We will maintain margins by offering a clean comfortable learning environment with qualified staff and excellent methodology, blah blah blah."

After this you then do action plans that have more specific goals that are measurable.

You're right.

It's a vision statement I need then. I just want something short and snappy that I can but on our website and below the new logo I'm having designed.

Well then how about "Where the seriously pretentious live out serious pretensions"? (it will probably sound very amiable when translated into Thai).

Our school is SANUK MAK LEUUY!

i'm with jasper, but more like "san0Ok jang leuuy" with a couple of googly eyeballs in the "0O"

This formula will either help or confuse!

GOALS > OBJECTIVES > MISSION > VISION

Consider a football team.

The goal of a football team is to score goals.

By scoring goals, the team will achieve its objective of winning games.

By winning as many games as possible, the team is more likely to achieve its mission of winning national trophies.

By winning national trophies, the team is more likely to achieve its vision of winning international trophies.

Really, work from your vision/mission statement down, that way you'll have a complete picture where every detail fits perfectly. Your slogan will be the last piece to fall in place. It will take time to think it through, but you'll be glad to see your creation in the end.

At the moment you don't know why one slogan is better than another, and your staff doesn't really understand what you are trying to achieve, and your customers will be confused, too - if your motto or your objectives don't fit into your mission/vision. They'll make it up for you: "Oh, just another rip off, he wants my money and showers me with nonsense he doesn't believe himself".

Unless your real mission is to make shitloads of money in the shortest time possible.

Actually suggested for a department I worked at:

"There's more to us than meets the eye!"

I liked that one. But the worst was:

"We like children."

How about,


'We're too cheap to employ a proper agency so we ended up with this sh!te'

Water off a duck's back.

I've no intention of getting involved in flame wars.

I asked a straightforward question. If I get a good suggestion great, if not then I'm no worse off than when I started.

"Working today for a better tomorrow" as suggested by one of the more serious posters is one I may well go with.
