Institutional Mission Statements and Attitudinal Outcomes of Selected Faith-Based Tertiary Institutions in Ghana

The study examined the mission statements of six accredited faith-based tertiary institutions in Ghana and the perceived influence of institutional mission on institutional members. Findings indicate that a significant number of respondents attest that they are not familiar with their institutions mission statement and therefore cannot recall the mission statement off-head. More so, the mission statement has not significantly influenced employees’ attitudes in terms of emotional commitment to duty and as a source of motivation/inspiration among others.This paper therefore discusses the implications of the findings as regards to the institutional missions and its effect on institutional staff.
