Introduction
- SMART goal setting is a framework for creating and evaluating goals that are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound.
- This structured approach helps individuals and organizations define clear, actionable objectives and develop effective strategies to reach them.
The SMART Goal Framework
- Specific: Goals should be clearly defined and address the who, what, where, when, and why of the desired outcome. Avoid vague or ambiguous language.
- Measurable: Goals should have quantifiable metrics or indicators that allow you to track progress and determine when the goal has been achieved.
- Achievable: Goals should be challenging yet realistic, based on your current resources, skills, and constraints.
- Relevant: Goals should align with your broader vision, priorities, and the overall context in which you operate.
- Time-bound: Goals should have a clearly defined timeline, with specific deadlines for completion or milestones.
