Flipgrid's mission statement is “to empower educators as they help learners of all ages define their voices, share their voices, and respect the diverse voices of others”.

Established in 2014, Flipgrid is a platform that enables educators to create "grids" to promote video discussions. Each grid is like a message board where teachers can ask questions, called subjects, and they can post video answers to their students that appear in a tiled grid display.

Flipgrid was created for twelve students and  now it's used by millions of students, educators, and families.

"Give people the power to build community and bring the world closer together."

Founded in 2004, Facebook jumpstarted out of a college dorm and has become one of the largest platforms of communication. With the purchase of WhatsApp and Instagram they control a large portion of direct social media. I believe that their mission statement puts forth a clear goal, connecting the world. They have some how been extremely successful due to the growth of technology. Facebook alongside other social media platforms have allowed communication all over the world to be possible. With them we can successfully spread news and information at the speed of light.

“Our mission is to strengthen communities and help make people's lives better. Our purpose is to drive human progress through freedom of movement.”

I totally believe the mission statement for Ford is relevant because of the times we are in and the shape our country is in. It is more important than ever before to strengthen our communities and Ford's mission statement is to do that very thing. Their purpose is also relevant because they are driving human progress forward as they discover new and innovative ways to produce cars and to make cars and vehicles in general more efficient.

“to be the leading provider of the wide range delicious beverages & baked product around the kingdom in a convenient, relaxed, friendly environment that insures the highest level of quality product and best value for money.”

I believe that Dunkin's mission statement is highly relevant because they provide breakfast foods and drinks to millions of American year round.

I think that Dunkin' is an excellent business since they have been around for years. Although things have not always been easy, they have managed to successfully adapt to the current market needs and provide quality service to its clients.

Nike: Our mission is,

To bring inspiration and innovation to every athlete* in the world.

*If you have a body, you are an athlete.

I think that this mission statement shows how committed Nike are in terms of helping athletes everywhere. It also shows with Nike being one of the top sports brands since it was first created. In their line of business, which is expanding and always being reimagined, it is hard to stay at the top, but brands like Nike and addidas are showing that they are willing to adapt with the changes that are thrown at them. The last line also really sticks out, that being “if you have a body, you are an athlete.” That really stands out because Nike shows that they are also taking a step above and beyond to care for people that might not be the best athletes, and they show that they are trying to motivate everyone and make everyone the best athlete they can be.

Google’s mission statement is “to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.”

Google’s mission statement is appropriate for the business because people all around the world use Google to access information on what they are looking for. When using Google, a person can gain knowledge on whatever it may be that they are searching for. Google is very informative and I have used Google many times to look things up and receive information on a specific topic. When I usually want to know an answer to a question the first idea that comes to my mind is to look it up on Google and it never fails to answer my question. Google meets its goals because it is one of the most informative establishments that provide billions of users with limitless sources of information.

"Empowering others.

Our mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more."

I believe this a short and sweet mission statement that suits the company well. They do exactly that through technology and have paved the way for research.  As a student I use Microsoft a lot between Word for writing essays, and powerpoint for projects. So many companies and business owners use Microsoft to reach their goals and that's why i think they are doing a good job at fulfilling their mission.

Apple's mission statement is “to bringing the best user experience to its customers through its innovative hardware, software, and services.”

Apple's Mission statement I believe is appropriate for the Business because for apple at Apple the client's experience is their number one priority. It gives the extraordinary capacity to plan and create incredible designs.Everything about Apple items must be planned with greatest regard for details down to the hardware to its services for the Apple user . Believe it or not I think Apple is doing great with  meeting their goals due to their agenda for utilizing on their programming coordinated inside the Apple devices that makes it more important for clients to use.  For example an iPhone without its App Store would not be worth a lot, despite the fact that that is a lovely gadget on the outside. Future wise, in hopes of their future I believe they will stick to their distribution strategies to expand their growth in the business and allow its products to be successful since part of their mission till this day is to create great products for the Apple User's to experience something incredible with their technology and that I think won't change for them.

"Our mission is to continually raise the bar of the customer experience by using the internet and technology to help consumers find, discover and buy anything, and empower businesses and content creators to maximize their success."

Amazon's mission statement aims to empower sellers while also guaranteeing a great experience customers. They have actually proved worthy of their statements in our world today as we see how many people are really satisfied with their experiences with Amazon, be it buying or selling.

With the way things are going with them, I think in the future, they will still hold true to this mission statement and deliver exactly what they said they will to both customers and businesses.

Starbucks mission statement is "To inspire and nurture the human spirit-one person, one cup and one neighborhood at a time. "

Starbucks' mission statement is relevant to their business. With three things; the partners, coffee and customers, Starbucks creates a warm and welcoming culture. Their handcrafted drinks made to each customers specification, is enough to make a customers day. But, Starbucks does not stop there. They make their customer their first priority. It is a place where a customer can walk in and feel welcomed. As a Starbucks barista myself, our customers love when we remember their names and even their orders. It is what keeps them coming back, rather than going to another coffee shop. By going above and beyond with getting to know our customers, Starbucks inspires and nurtures, one customer, one cup and one neighborhood at a time.

I can give a real life example. We have this one regular customer we will just call him Jerry. He has been coming here since we open. We know his order and have it ready before he comes in. We have built such a great relationship with him. For months he has not been showing up like he regularly does. My Starbucks contacted him to make sure he was okay. To find out that he was hospitalized and cannot leave his home, us partners were able to make his hard times better. We held an open mic night event in honor of him. We also delivered his favorite coffee beans to his house so he could have his Starbucks at home.

"Transform health care and be recognized as the leader of positive change."

The mission statement describes HMH's goal, which goes beyond simply providing health care services to patients (customers). The company strives to "transform" and become a "leader" for positive change. This is demonstrated by hiring staff who are attentive to the needs of patients (and family members!) and who go beyond their job description to ensure satisfaction and especially, trust in the healthcare system. This mission is one that can be met on a day-to-day basis, but it never "reached" because it is an ongoing objective. Patient experience is important, not only for instituting trust in healthcare professionals, but to protect the company and remain strong a competitor in the field as well. This mission statement reflects the desire for positive outcomes in the healthcare setting and a strong leading role in health advancement.

“People working together as a global enterprise for aerospace industry leadership. ” The mission statement reveals a very critical element of this company. It shows that Boeing is not all about the production of mechanical products – in any case, the company values the creation of long-lasting links amongst the people and stakeholders it comes in contact with.

Boeing is a leader not only in aerospace but also in defense space and security. Both which require persistent and constant updating to keep up with competition and threats.

Boeings strengths are that they have consistently strong financial performances over the years but their huge pensions spending drag them back. Their financial ratios are mainly all above average but do have competition from the air bus due to the malfunction issues of the 737.
