Our Vision, Our Mission &
Our Values
We take our vision and mission seriously.
Not so long ago, having a lofty mission statement (and/or a vision statement) was a hot trend for businesses large and small. Some companies even went so far as to hire high-priced consultants to craft their mission and vision statements for them. Unfortunately, all too many people – employees and customers alike – discovered that some businesses' lofty sentiments were just words and nothing more. The idea of a "mission statement" became a joke in some circles.
We happen to think that mission and vision statements are valuable tools to help a business stay focused on its priorities. By definition, however, these statements must mean something; they have to be more than a string of fine words set in ornate script and then framed and hung in the CEO's plush office. Not only should they reflect the company's highest values, they should both reflect and guide the real-world practices of everyone in the firm – from the president to the newest part-time office assistant.
Of course no company is perfect, including Cooliemon®. However, we always try our best to be guided by our own highest personal values, and to run our operation in accordance with our vision and mission statements.
