From the Paper:

"A corporate mission is that common objective amongst colleagues that helps to create a focus on results for the organization. It is essential that this mission is communicated between all members of the company, from the top executive officer to the nightly janitor. When people become empowered with being a part of the path to success, their own personal contribution often increases in order to become recognized. As a result, the company as a whole benefits and becomes just that much closer to overall success in the mission."
