In this episode…According to Psychology Today, only 20% of people set goals. What’s more, 70% of those people fail to achieve them. This often happens when they lack accountability and intention in setting goals. What strategies can you implement to set and achieve goals successfully?
Well-defined goals can improve employee engagement and enhance collaboration between HR and executives. HR strategist Traci Austin employs the SMART framework — specific, measurable, actionable, realistic, and time-based — to help middle-managers set goals that propel their organization forward. Additionally, identifying the “why” behind your goals integrates them with meaning and boosts team motivation to work toward them. Traci also mentions that aligning employees’ personal and professional goals helps retain them as they identify a purpose within the organization.
