The Six Steps of Goal Settings

Vision Target Objec- tive Tasks Time-

line Measure

When setting goals, keep these points in mind: • They should be realistic and attainable. • They should improve the organization (morale, monetary, etc.). • All the people should be involved in the goal-setting process. • A program should be developed to achieve each goal.


The SMART Model

S Specific How can we describe the goal concrete and accurate?

M Measurable How can we observe and measure the success?

A Attractive Is the goal a positive state with a “towards attitude”?

R Realistic Are time period, amount, resources and conditions planned in the way that the goal is reachable?

T Time-Phased Is a date settle when the goal should be reached?


This Was The Easy Stuff, But …

… how can we get a common understanding of the goals?
