Eight Steps to Goal Setting

Eight Steps to Goal Setting


The coaching goal-setting loop consists of eight powerful steps:

1. Ensure that the goal is appropriate and is connected to the business results that your organization wants to achieve.

2. Discuss the impact of these goals on the individual and the organization.

3. Explore different action paths.

4. Explore the specific tasks and possible obstacles each of these paths entail.

5. Narrow the options to one or two that make the most sense from the individual and organizational perspective.

6. Identify resources needed for the action path taken.

7. Set a timeframe for achieving these goals.

8. Determine how the results will be measured.


Powerful Question:

  • What is important and relevant to you and your organization?
  • What is the impact when this goal is achieved?
  • What are the ways to achieve this?
  • Among all the steps, which way suits you the best? Why?
  • What specifically needs to be done? What are the key obstacles?
  • How can they be removed?
  • What are the support and resources needed?
  • How can you ensure that you get them?
  • When will this goal be achieved?
  • How do you know when you get there?

Are your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?"

Stories That Coach! - My ‘Stories That Coach’ blog is to deeply express my ‘inner-views’ in my life journey as a Coach. I want to take these stories to you, with each coaching story becoming a specific 'thought' platform. It is our place to actively share, generously express and deeply and widely interact. I believe that when we do this, it will powerfully elevate our self-awareness, deepen our learning and enrich our lives many times more.
