A 'vision' is an aspirational, long-term statement of what an organization wants to achieve, which is typically qualitative and inspirational rather than directly measurable.

CgoalsCorrect

Goals must be measurable to allow an organization to track progress, evaluate performance, and determine whether objectives are being met, providing concrete benchmarks for success within a business strategy.
