(and that vision is "happily pissed people with empty wallets")

Creating loyalty is not complicated it just requires everyone on board with the vision.

I think they a word there.

I read The Dilbert Principle last month (only about thirty years behind the curve, I know) and it slates ~~purpose~~ ~~mission~~ vision statements even then.

In retrospect, it looks like Adams' edgy jokes and views didn't age well.

Just do you know, that guy lives in a mansion shaped like Dilbert's head which has a pool also shaped like Dilbert's head.

I suppose if the character made you a fortune, might as well lean in to it!

(He’s also the guy who thinks Trump is playing 4D chess and is a complete, unhinged moron).

Although his views may have changed in alignment with the arrival of his Dilbert mansion

That's the least of the problems with that guy.

Dilbert is still funny and spot on even if he turned it to be an asshole

A former boss used to make at least one person at every meeting recite the company's mission and vision statements--yes, two different statements, and if you missed even one word, no matter how inconsequential, he'd get on your ass about it in front of everyone. No surprise that he constantly listened to and quoted management podcasts and audio books, rarely questioning any of them.

I bet the turnover rate at that place was insanely high.

The company I work for asks us to do shit like this in our meetings. Like "what does mean to you"? I always want to be like "well I like the part where I get a check every couple weeks...."

Remember when visions were for introspection and self awareness? And not the cool aid of business propaganda?

Calls himself "inspiring teacher". Tooting his own horn, huh?
