Of course it depends, but this is where having a mission statement is really helpful. I've been in this position before and what seemed like a hard decision at first was super easy once I reread the mission statement. "Oh wow...option B clearly fits into the mission while option A does not."

I would encourage every company, large or small, to work on a real mission statement that can be committed to for the long haul.



As I have gotten older, this is a good way to judge potential employers, especially if they cannot articulate the mission.
