Goal Setting: A Practical Guide
Source: Taleo Marketing
Goals help connect business strategy to successful results and ensure the workforce is aligned and heading the right direction. Goals serve to drive greater company objectives including improved shareholder value, greater profitability, increased revenue, and inspired innovation. When we set goals, we try to translate strategy into relevant, measurable, and attainable elements for individuals—the things they execute against on a daily basis.
Goal setting is also critically important to employee engagement. It’s human nature to seek an understanding of how our contribution fits into the big picture and feel satisfaction when we make progress towards—and meet—our objectives. Goals also promote more useful interaction between managers and their direct reports, as well as among teams, so that they can better align plans, monitor milestones, and make course corrections when needed.
