Set up a S.M.A.R.T. objectives.
Doesn’t matter if it’s a personal goal or a working objective, you need a SMART ones. In my personal and working experience, it wasn't always easy to setup, however, when setup, everything became more clear and reachable.
😏 S.M.A.R.T. it’s an acronyms for:
I would like to share an extended definition with some questions that can help you on writing objectives.
Each of the SMART criteria is as important as the other, so be careful not to overlook one element or favour one aspect over another.
S: Specific and Stretching
- Is the objective clear, precise and unambiguous?
- Is the objective stretching in some way (but still realistically achievable)?
M: Measurable
- Does the objective say what success will look like and how it will be measured, in terms of quantity or quality?
A: Achievable and Agreed
- Is the objective realistically achievable (but not too easily), taking into account the time-frame, resources and support that are available?
- Have both the individual and their manager/coach/family agreed on the objective?
R: Relevant
- Is the objective relevant to what the business and /or the team need to achieve?
- Will it support the achievement of the overall goals of the organisation/personal main goal?
T: Timely
- Has a specific date been agreed for when the objective should be completed?
- Is the target date related to the objective rather than simply coinciding with the end of the review year?
