Setting Objectives - People Development training

The ability to set SMART objectives is the key component in improving the performance of individuals. Many organisations use it within their appraisal process because the benefits of setting targets that are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time-bounded ensures that employees are given a sense of direction and guides their focus towards the achievement of goals and targets.

Our Setting SMART Objectives programme is ideal for leaders and managers at all levels who require the skills to track their employee’s performance and intervene where necessary whilst improving their productivity and performance. Please note, the content of this programme could be customised to include examples provided by the delegates for discussion.

What are the benefits of attending?

Upon completion of this event, delegates will have been exposed to the training required to provide them with the skills and techniques enabling them to:

• Understand the benefits of setting SMART objectives to themselves, employees, and the company
• Improve the motivation and productivity of employees
• Structure and manage expectations
• Set SMART objectives and link them to the appraisal process
• Monitor and evaluate employee’s progress
• Close any performance gaps by making skilled intervention
