Goals are part of every aspect of business/life and provide a sense of direction, motivation, a clear focus, and clarify importance. By setting goals, you are providing yourself with a target to aim for. A SMART goal is used to help guide goal setting. SMART is an acronym that stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely. Therefore, a SMART goal incorporates all of these criteria to help focus your efforts and increase the chances of achieving your goal. Many managers struggle with articulating the behaviour and why it's not working, let alone trying to translate it into a SMART objective. So, oftentimes, it gets brushed under the carpet and the team soldiers on. This stoicism results in the staff member not pulling their weight or getting the opportunity to develop, the rest of the team having to compensate, the manager's focus stepping down, to deal with the knock-on impacts. Everyone is slightly (or a lot) behind and nobody is really benefiting. There's no win-win here. In this book on SMART Goal Setting, you will discover: - Relationship between Job Descriptions and Performance Management - Limitations of using SMART with another person - 4 Different types of performance objectives - How to set a tangible behavioural SMART objective - Understanding the employee's expectations and assumptions - Understanding your own performance mindset, as a manager - Preparing for and conducting objective setting meetings If you read this book, you will understand the assumptions that are made that render some objectives dead upon arrival i.e., the objective is doomed before you've even left the room. This information will allow you to ask questions that prompt a proper discussion of what is really meant by the objective, allowing you to shape it into a realistic objective that you are likely to benefit from, both in the short-term and in your career, over the longer-term.

This book is a practical and accessible guide to understanding and implementing the SMART criteria, providing you with the essential information and saving time. In 50 minutes you will be able to: • Understand the 5 criteria that make up the SMART method (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time-Bound) • Follow the steps and ask the right questions in order to always set objectives that are achievable • Apply the model in many different areas, including project management, marketing and personal development. Specific: the objective must relate to a specific element. This criterion avoids formulations that are too broad - and therefore too vague. By precisely defining an objective, the actions needed to achieve it become clear. Sub-objectives may be added (decreasing the defect rate, the number of failures, etc.). A good objective is, according to this criterion, defined by these main aspects: it applies to a framework or a specific geographic region and also has specific funding; Measurable : it is essential to take account of this aspect which controls the results when setting objectives in the business community. Assignable : one or more people should be clearly identified as responsible for the realization of the objective. Realistic: this concept aims to differentiate the ideal situation - more difficult to achieve. Time-bound : it is important to define a timeline when setting the objective. Variations in word include SMART goals, SMART criteria, SMART method, SMART objectives and SMARTER method.
