Get other people on the team to critique the draft of the vision to make sure it's effective and inspiring. If there are any key customers the organization trusts, ask them to review the draft too.

8. What is Company Mission?
The unique purpose that sets a company apart from others of its type and identifies the scope of its operation. In product, market, and technology

9. Mission
Definition: A sentence describing a company's function, markets and competitive advantages; a short written statement of your business goals and philosophies
A mission statement defines what an organization is, why it exists, its reason for being. At a minimum, your mission statement should define who your primary customers are, identify the products and services you produce, and describe the geographical location in which you operate

12. How to write a Mission?
Ask "What do we do?"; "How do we do it?"; and "For whom do we do it,"
Create a draft mission statement describing how the company uniquely answers these questions. Touch on the organization's current operations and the industry it is in.
Look at competitors in the industry and use their mission statements for research. Ask yourself what works and what does not work. Revise your mission statement as needed.
Get feedback from other members of the organization once the statement is drafted. 

13. The Difference between Vision & Mission
Vision - The Future
Definition: The way in which one sees or conceives something; a mental image; An overall statement of the goal of the organization.
Vision should describe what will be achieved in the wider sphere if the organization and others are successful in achieving their individual missions. 

14. The Difference between Vision & Mission
Mission - The Present
Definition: An assignment one is sent to carry out; a self-imposed duty. A mission statement identifies the reason for the existence of the organization. The statement should be linked to the overall operations and business of the organization
A Mission statement is more specific to what the enterprise can achieve itself.

15. Which comes first?
  That depends. If you have a new start up business, new program or plan to reengineer your current services, then the vision will guide the mission statement and the rest of the strategic plan. If you have an established business where the mission is established, then many times, the mission guides the vision statement and the rest of the strategic plan. Either way, you need to know your fundamental purpose - the mission, your current situation in terms of internal resources and capabilities (strengths and/or weaknesses) and external conditions (opportunities and/or threats), and where you want to go - the vision for the future. It's important that you keep the end or desired result in sight from the start
