With hundreds of research studies on goal-setting and its effects, there is strong scientific support for the idea that setting goals leads to better performance and better well-being. 

However, not all goals are created equal. The right goals can help you be more persistent, motivated, focused, and resourceful. On the other hand, the wrong goals can leave you demotivated, overwhelmed, or wanting to take the easy way out. 

In this hands-on class, we present the research on what makes a powerful goal and guide you in setting real goals for yourself at work. You’ll have a chance to workshop your goals with peers in the class and receive valuable feedback. Additionally, we’ll share real strategies to increase the likelihood of achieving your goals. 

You’ll leave with a greater understanding of 

• Why you want to set both long-term and short term goals at work
• How to set TRAMS (time-bound, relevant, attainable, measurable, specific) goals
• How to make goals more visible to boost motivation
