2 Hour Topic

Managers, Directors and Executives

Setting goals is one of the simplest and most ancient of techniques for gaining clear direction in the effort to get the results we want. Crafting goal statements is an effective first step for an individual, group, team, department or organization to move toward actually achieving the goals that are set. After all we cannot set out for a destination if we do not know where the end point of the trip is or without knowing what the place will look like when we get there. Today we have become fairly sophisticated at goal setting and this module will introduce the simple basics of goal setting as well as a number of variants which you can adapt for your own goal setting purposes.
