Mission Statement Costs:
Please forgive multiple posting...
Although the following 5 questions are addressed (mainly) to
practitioners and managers, academic replies are welcomed as well. In
particular we are searching data on mission statement COSTS (as a
function of firm size). Could you please reply to any of the following 5
questions:
1. COST in $ of the process that guided to the development of the Mission
Statement:
2. TIME it took to develop the statement:
3. SIZE in NUMBER of employees in the company:
4. Was the Statement ASSIGNED (e.g., top-down) or CO-ASSIGNED (e.g.,
management and employees participatively):
5. INDUSTRY (e.g., high-tech, service, sales, etc.)
 
Please reply directly to me and I, of course,  will summarize.
Thanks in advance,
