Developing Performance Goals is a planning
process because all good team leaders work to a plan, and
they make sure those who work with them have a solid
understanding of that plan.
The basis of any good
plan is a set of definite goals. These must be specific,
measurable, attainable, results-oriented, and time-framed.
That spells SMART. Smart goals help people shape smart
plans.
Just as important as
setting goals and developing a plan is carrying out the
plan. And this is where many people fail, because they are
not really committed to the plan.
An important part of
a team leader’s role is to encourage team members to develop
effective performance goals and to commit to those goals on
a daily basis.
The key to developing
an effective team is participation; when people participate
in setting goals and developing a plan, they buy into that
plan. The plan becomes their own.
Program Description
Unless managers and team leaders are successful in spelling
out the organization’s specific goals, their team members
are not going to know how to meet those objectives. This
module shows trainees how to establish specific, measurable,
attainable, results-oriented, and time-framed performance
goals. It then illustrates the steps that gain team member
agreement and commitment to those performance goals.
Developing
Performance Goals is an interactive, 4-hour group
workshop designed for 6 to 18 participants. |
