In a climate of increasing competition and reducing resources, it’s crucial that individual and team efforts are aligned with organizational goals.
Setting clear and relevant objectives is a vital part of the leadership role. The process of objective-setting across the team can feel overwhelming, but if you take a step-by-step approach you will be able to do it confidently and do it well.

In order to have energy and clarity, and to focus their attention and effort on doing what needs to be done, your team needs to have a set of well-structured objectives. This gives them a clear line of sight between their day to day activities and the overall purpose of their role. It also allows you to measure peoples’ contribution and achievement, accurately and effectively. Poorly structured objectives can lead to confusion and waste time and energy by leading individuals and teams in the wrong direction. Your team members will want to know what is expected of them and how they are performing against those expectations – the objectives you set them will help them to answer these fundamental questions.

This 90-minute virtual session will enable you to make tangible connections between individual objectives, team objectives, and organizational strategy. You will leave with the ability and confidence to successfully prepare and deliver appropriate task and behaviour objectives to your team.

 

  • Do you want to feel more confident that you are setting the right objectives for your team members, in the right ways?
  • Are you confident that the objectives you have set are meaningful and relevant?
  • Would your team benefit from greater clarity and focus, with clear targets to aim for?
