Does your team have a clear direction?
Team goals form the bedrock of many teams – and they shape individual goals. But how do you know if you have the right goals in place? And how can you tell if they're working?
If you get team goals right, you form a solid foundation for a productive and happy team. If you don't, then you're at risk of sending your team in the wrong direction.
So join the Pain Points team as they discuss how to get goal setting right, and share their own experiences – both good and bad!
Talking points include:
- Do teams need goals? Why?
- When have we experienced effective goal setting in a team? What were the benefits?
- And when has it been less successful in our experience? What were the negative impacts on us and our team?
- What are the best goal-setting tools and techniques?
- What are the pitfalls to avoid?
