1. Provides a framework for crafting a personal goal setting strategy

DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION

Goal setting is everywhere in our world. We set goals for our careers, our health, and our lives in general. Whether you're setting personal goals or professional goals, this guide will enable you to determine a strategy to achieve your goals.

Now, more than ever, with the uncertainty that exists in the world, it is critical to craft your life plan. Goals determine your direction. Systems determine your progress. Setting goals gives you long-term vision and short-term motivation.

Research tells us that goal setting is important on both an individual and a group basis and that there is an important relationship between goals and performance. The most effective performance seems to be the result of goals being both specific and challenging. When goals are used to evaluate performance and linked to feedback on results, they create a sense of commitment and acceptance.

This guide is a powerful tool for both individuals and organizations as goal-driven individuals are valuable as goal setting can lead to greater success and performance. In the end, you can't manage what you don't measure and you can't improve upon something that you don't properly manage. Setting goals can help you do all of that and so much more.
