4. TWO:
One of the processes that I plan to use to conduct research is
going to involve researching the market via the internet and
obtain information from different types of literature in the same
field. By researching my competitors, I will be able to get a
clear overall view of the market. After identifying the findings,
I will collaborate with my group peers to tailor the project in
areas that provide a path to success. The Preliminary outline
will consist of a basic format to include the deliverable
requested and listed as follows...
· Outline of the Business Plan
· Strategic Planning (SWOT Analysis)
· Mission Statement
· Key Operating Principles
· Market Analysis
· 3 Time framed strategic Proposals in one-year, five-year, and
ten-year increments
· Additional information to support the strategic initiative
Elements of a Mission Statement consist of customers,
products/services, markets, technology, survival, philosophy,
self-concept, public image, and concern for employees.
Operating principles are important because they are the way a
business place their values into motion to achieve their
goals/visions. They are great to get everyone involved and on
the same page.
Additional material that contributes to the success of the project
will include good communication within the organization, risk
management, project closure, and proper planning.

What are the essential elements of a Mission Statement? In
developing a mission statement, management must take into
account three key elements: the organization’s history, its
distinctive competencies, and its environment. Also the
customer, products or services, markets and technology
information is so important.
What is the purpose of a Key Operating Principle? Operating
principles are the rules of the road that enable people to know
what’s in bounds and what’s out on bounds in their companies
and workplaces. Operating principles can serve as guides,
helping people make sound decisions, building trust and
enabling greater innovation. Operating principles for teams can
take many forms.
