Sears at one time lost sight of its mission and jumped into markets such as real estate and financial services that did not fit its strengths or core operations. This most likely occurred because Sears lacked a mission statement with the appropriate:
a. focus. b. strategic fit. c. stability. d. profitability. e. width.

E. Width

Explanation:

Mission statements are short descriptions of why an organization or company exists. It explains what it does, who he does it for and how special is he from others. A mission statement needs to have an appropriate width by defining what the company does for the customers, what the company does for it's employees and what the company does for its owners. A proper mission statement with width would have made Sears not lose sight of his mission.

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
