why SMART goals don’t work
yes we have been taught in Management 101, Manager as Coach and many other training courses that SMART goals are the answer!!
so let me ask you – how is your track record? out of 10, how many goals, new year resolutions etc have you completed?
even if it was specific, measurable, attractive, relalistic and timelined — what happened when life got busy, you got de-motivated etc 95% of NTR’s never get past the middle of Feb.
why – there are 2 missing A’s
1. Action
2. Accountabilty
we stop taking action, even small steps and we don’t have anyone to hold us accountable.
next week I am going to be talking about action steps and accountability - for now, review your NYR and goals for 2012.
make them SMART.
next week I will help tie in the 2 A’s that will get you a better chance at staying with it till the end.
