MODULE

Setting and tracking SMART targets

Give your team purpose, direction, and clarity through smart goal-setting.

Learn why vision and SMART targets matter—and how to set them in ways that earn genuine team buy-in. When goals are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound, your team gains focus and momentum. This course will give you clarity on your team's priority targets, plus the skills to agree, communicate, and track achievement with every member—including how to handle under-performance confidently and constructively.

  • Align to organisational vision – Understand how targets connect to broader priorities—and your role in delivering them

  • Master SMART criteria – Apply Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound principles with confidence

  • Co-create targets with your team – Set goals collaboratively, not just assign them top-down

  • Secure real commitment – Build on Insights Discovery and personality insights from earlier modules to gain genuine agreement

  • Individualise target-setting – Tailor SMART goals for each team member's context and capability

  • Monitor progress effectively – Track achievement—and spot under-achievement early—without micromanaging

  • Address under-performance – Put structured processes in place to handle performance gaps fairly and confidently

  • Leave with action – Create a prioritised plan focused on your own growth as a people manager

Get the clarity and commitment you and your team need to deliver on your vision and core priorities.
