Core Ideology & Envisioned Future

Core ideology describes an association’s consistent identity that transcends all changes related to its relevant environment. It consists of two elements - core purpose – the association’s reason for being – and core values – essential and enduring principles that guide an association. Envisioned future conveys a concrete yet unrealized vision for the association. It consists of a big audacious goal – a clear and compelling catalyst that serves as a focal point for effort – and a vivid description – vibrant and engaging descriptions of what it will be like to achieve the big audacious goal.
