SMART goals

    Create three SMART goals, using one copy of the required SMART Goal Worksheet for each goal. Introduction The assessments in this course must be completed in sequence. Establishing SMART goals is a reflexive practice that helps a person think critically about assumptions and values and puts the focus on what he or she wants to accomplish, personally or professionally. This assessment is an opportunity for you to select three goals that are important to you, either personally or professionally. Goals should align to our core values and be the driving force that provides motivation to help us achieve our vision. Without goals, we run the risk of wandering aimlessly and never achieving what is important to us. You will continue to build upon these goals in next assessment; but more importantly, you will use them to move forward in your personal and professional pursuits. As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration, and they do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment. What beliefs do you have about yourself, and how do those beliefs affect your personal development? What does it mean to be critically reflexive? What does authenticity in leadership mean to you? Preparation Use one copy of the SMART Goals Worksheet [DOC] for each goal. Instructions For this assessment, complete three worksheets (one for each goal), ensuring that each goal is specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound. Use the SMART Goals Worksheet.
