1 Assess your current situation

Before you can prove your vision and mission statements, you need to know where you stand. How well do you understand your organization's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats? How do you measure your performance and progress? How do you compare to your competitors and benchmarks? Conducting a SWOT analysis, a balanced scorecard, or a similar tool can help you assess your current situation and identify any gaps or inconsistencies between your vision and mission statements and your reality.

Participating in the broader stroke of "the water sector" is and will remain a difficult mission. Water security data, both now and for the future, need to be constantly updated and placed at the public's disposal. At the onset we were focused on our pinnacle of AWG technology. As time moved, so did we. We became involved in AI driven geo-spatial tech and waste water recycling. Both of these areas did not change our mission but expanded it. Bringing advancement to the public is a slower process than planned, so we sought IP which was advanced and more appealing to a larger audience and appealed to governments and large corporations. The pivot increased our valuation, financial strength and most of it has kept us relevant.

2 Involve your stakeholders

Your vision and mission statements are not just for you. They are for your employees, customers, partners, investors, and anyone else who has a stake in your organization. Therefore, you need to involve them in the process of proving your vision and mission statements. Seek their feedback, input, and support. Listen to their needs, expectations, and concerns. Share your vision and mission statements with them and explain how they benefit from them. Engage them in your strategic planning and decision making. By involving your stakeholders, you can build trust, loyalty, and commitment to your vision and mission statements.

3 Align your actions with your words

The most effective way to prove your vision and mission statements is to align your actions with your words. Your vision and mission statements should guide your every move, from setting your goals and objectives, to designing your policies and procedures, to allocating your resources and rewards, to evaluating your results and outcomes. Your actions should reflect your vision and mission statements in a consistent and coherent way. If there is a mismatch between what you say and what you do, you risk losing your credibility, reputation, and trust.

You can use various methods to communicate your impact, such as stories, testimonials, case studies, reports, awards, or social media.

5 Review and revise your vision and mission statements

Finally, you need to review and revise your vision and mission statements periodically. Your vision and mission statements are not static. They are dynamic and evolving. As your organization grows, changes, and adapts to the external environment, your vision and mission statements may need to be updated, refined, or redefined. Reviewing and revising your vision and mission statements can help you ensure that they are still relevant, realistic, and aligned with your actions. It can also help you identify new opportunities, challenges, and goals for your organization.
