Developing Performance Goals & Standards

It’s always easy to talk about vision, mission, strategy and goals; however, it’s also almost impossible to expect your team members to do their jobs in a way that really aligns with organizational goals unless they have a well-defined process that you implement.

That alignment is best accomplished through the establishment of a SMART-based performance standard. What’s a SMART standard? It’s one that’s Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Results-oriented, and Time-framed.

Our experience has proven that the SMART approach enables work team members to really understand organizational performance requirements and their own role in moving the business forward. Because SMART is a collaborative way to develop goals and standards, team members intuitively agree to the process and give their full commitment to its success.

Managers and team leaders will be:

  • Defining goals, objectives and performance standards.
  • Identifying and setting performance standards that are SMART.
  • Involving team members in creating their own individual performance standards.
  • Negotiating with team members to develop effective SMART-based performance standards.
  • Monitoring team members’ progress toward their goals by holding individual review meetings.
