Setting Goals for Success offers managers invaluable insights into the challenges associated with setting goals for associates and provides a framework for goal setting in the context of performance with fulfilment. Participants explore proven goal – setting processes, best practices for linking goals to strategy execution, and the importance of setting goals that address both performance and fulfilment considerations.

OFFERING DETAILS

Setting Goals for Success is a practical, one – day, facilitator –led leadership effectiveness program. By participating in a variety of activities, learners explore proven techniques for setting goals. Throughout the program, participants are introduced to goal – setting best practices. The “wrong way” and “right way” of setting people up for success are illustrated in depth. The characteristics of effective goals are defined. And the connections between organizational strategy and the associate’s performance results are clarified.

Learners also examine the two factors of professional success – performance and fulfilment – and discuss the benefits of high performance/ high fulfilment, both to the individual contributor and to the organization as a whole. Heavy emphasis is placed on what managers can do to create an environment that fosters both performance and fulfilment.

Participants practice writing well thought – out goals for themselves and for their associates, and plan a goal – setting discussion. A video example of a goal – setting discussion provides participants insights into a proven, “right way” approach.
