Through their official corporate statements, companies large and small, public and private, set forth their objectives and vision for future growth. Entrepreneurs find the stated goals of established companies valuable in forming their own businesses; students and prospective employees use the statements to gain useful background information on a company's culture. Each of the over 900 alphabetically arranged entries includes the company's name, address, phone number, and Internet address. These data are followed by a brief description of the company and the actual mission statement. Frequently there are two or three written presentations by one company.
