Recent update to the Vision Statement
Jun 5th. Draft: Vision
We are making a difference by expanding the role of businesses, groups, and organizations in transforming society. We will know we are being effective when a critical mass of organizations in our region focus on universal spirit-based values, lead their employees with opportunities to explore and express their spirituality, and act with integrity with all of their stakeholders.
For example, they demonstrate...
* caring for the environment,
* promotion of social justice,
* respect for all cultures, and
* a commitment to the full development of all human beings connected to or impacted by the organization.

Jose and others of the "small group" who continued work on our drafts of a Mission/Vision/Values document (as well as some goals for our first year)
Thanks!
As one voice, I'm fine with the proposed revisions to the initial draft. Using the "5 fingers" format for indicating degree of consensus, I'd give this new draft a 4. (with 5 indicating total, blissful affirmation !). My slight reservation is the deletion of any reference to "inclusiveness" as a core value: explicity stating that we understand work place exploration of spirituality to embrace all faith traditions AND to be accepting of those in the workplace who do NOT see their work as an expression of their acknowledged or even denied spirituality.
But I could live with leaving that value out - for now - if it proves to be too tangential for others.
