The magic of Cascading Vision (1)

While “cascading vision” is not a commonly used term in management, we can explore how the concept of “vision” could cascade throughout an organization.

In this context, “cascading vision” would refer to a process of aligning the organization’s vision with the vision of each level of the organization, from top-level executives to individual employees. This involves ensuring that each individual understands and is working towards the organization’s overall vision, and that their actions and decisions align with this vision.

To achieve a cascading vision, top-level executives would need to establish a clear and compelling vision for the organization, which would be communicated to middle managers, who would in turn communicate it to their teams. The vision would be broken down into specific objectives and action plans that are aligned with the overall vision and that support its realization.The cascading vision process would involve a collaborative approach, with managers and employees working together to ensure that their individual visions align with the organization’s vision. This would help to create a sense of ownership and accountability and would help to ensure that everyone is working towards the same overarching goal.
