Writing Great Goals

Writing good goals is a great first step toward completing them.  Here are some best practices to keep in mind when creating your goals:

• Begin with a verb

• Goals should be concise - 5 to 7 words and action-oriented

• Each goal should be written and scoped to be completed within a month

• If you’re using lag measures, write it in terms of X to Y by When

• Keep it simple!

• Each goal must have an owner, and can only have one owner.
