Most organizations are pretty good at filling out forms correctly. What we’re less adept at is making sure the content on those forms is gutsy and challenging enough to result in something great. Find out why SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time-bound) can still be pretty dumb. In this program, we’ve distilled the critical success factors into a goal-setting methodology called HARD Goals. HARD Goals push everyone involved beyond their current self-imposed restraints (and help them discover where their limits, if any, really exist). You’ll learn how to push your people to achieve the extraordinary, even in the toughest of times. We’ll show you why SMART Goals fail and 4 keys to setting goals that test every one of your limits. You’ll learn why goals that serve something bigger than ourselves are so motivating. We’ll give you 3 tools for describing and presenting goals so vividly that to not reach it would leave your employees wanting. Also, discover how to make your goals appear as critical to continued existence as
breathing. Gain insight into whether or not to or not you should use a competitive threat or rival to motivate great performance and why you should NOT give people all the Skills, Budget, Time and Authority they need to complete their goals. Also, learn how to test whether your goals are actually too difficult or not difficult enough.
