Those who find success are those who are able to set and achieve goals. Doing so helps to ensure we aren’t just going through the motions of life – living without forethought. It makes us consider who we want to be, what we want to achieve and why.
Personally and professionally, being on a path to achieving SMART objectives can also be incredibly motivating. It is satisfying to know that you are going somewhere. And even if there are setbacks, you have a larger purpose in mind. SMART objectives give you a long view of where you are going, with the bonus of short-term motivation.
All too often, we can set a goal to achieve, but fail to follow through with it. Why is this? Well, perhaps we didn’t have a clear understanding of what the goal was from the start. Maybe it was due to a lack of resources or a clear time frame. Or maybe along the way of achieving the goal, we realised it was no longer in line with our broader objectives.
The SMART objectives setting course demonstrates how to create goals that suit us personally and professionally. And it looks out how to ensure they are not just within your reach, but that you are able to see your progress and adjust your vision along the way.

This Objective-Setting Training course gives you the skills to set realistic and achievable goals. Having smart and attainable objectives helps you make consistent progress towards your desired outcomes.
The acronym SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-bound. SMART goal setting approach ensures goals are clear, actionable and aligned with broader objectives.
Our training programme equips participants with the skills to set SMART goals for sustained growth and success.
Goals are broad, long-term aims that define what an organisation or individual hopes to achieve. They provide overall direction and purpose.
Objectives are the steps or actions taken to achieve these goals. They’re short-term and specific, often with set timelines and success criteria.
Setting objectives at work provides clarity and direction, which helps your employees understand their duties and priorities. It also promotes a sense of purpose and achievement to motivate employees. Furthermore, individual objectives let you benchmark employees’ performance and reveal strengths and shortcomings in your operations.
Objective Setting Training is a single module and takes approximately 30 minutes to complete.
