Case Study A - Vision and mission statements

XYZ law firm has been established for five years; it operates within the area of business law. It has been a provider of commercial (or corporate) and contract law services to businesses.

However, it has just expanded to include employment law, including employee rights and benefits, discrimination and human resources law.

The two existing law corporate law partners have been joined by a new employment law partner; they are now managing the firm together. As part of this change, the stakeholders must evaluate their current vision and mission statements to make sure they reflect the direction that the firm is now taking.

The vision statement

'To provide top-tier commercial law services to Australian businesses.'

The mission statement

'We take on all types of commercial law needs to assist businesses to work successfully.'
