John Bishop’s blog, Leadership is a Verb, recently commented on the benefits of S.M.A.R.T. goals. You can read the whole text here.
John defines the SMART acronym as Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time phased. Everyone agrees on the first three. I variously see Realistic in position four and Timely in the last spot, but the gist is the same.
EOS is a big fan of SMART goals. We call them Rocks. We set them and review them every 90 days with an objective of achieving our annual goals 90 days at a time.
There should be SMART goals for your company, your leadership team and ultimately everyone in your business.
How do you set goals for your company and your leadership team?
