Because of my analytical study, I have a vision for the future. The key point on vision is that it is unique to every leader. My vision must be cultivated out of experience, inspiration or analysis. If you borrow a vision, you are simply managing another person's vision, you are not leading. To borrow a vision is to fail to lead.
Vision often arises at just the right time.
Therefore there are environmental factors related to vision. These environmental factors may include a conflict, an opportunity, a crisis, or a need. When confronted with one of these factors, a leader steps forth to offer vision and direction. In fact, the leader knows that such circumstances are ripe for vision, because people have a more urgent need for clear direction, guidance, and purpose during such trying times. Leaders value trying times because such interruptions are opportunities to get below business as usual and chart a new and better course.
