Every business, big or small, sets out with one objective in mind: success. In order to reach that objective, businesses have to set clear, definable objectives that can be measured to see if they are in fact on track.

The common thread that seems to be visible in every successful company is their ability to set individual objectives for employee and have them conform to the overall strategy of the company.

Setting Objectives 

Rather than being seen as a list of demands from the employer, setting objectives should be done as collaboration between employee and manager. This is usually done via a framework referred to as S-M-A-R-T.

• Specific – The objective put forward should all be very specific in detail. That means letting the employee know exactly what it expected and in what timeframe.
• Measurable – Set milestones so that you can track the progress of each employee, motivating and rewarding them accordingly.
• Attainable – Keeping objectives within reach is the key to success. Setting them too high or too low can lead to employee disillusionment.
• Relevant – Choose objectives that are important and which will have a real impact on company strategy.
• Time-bound – Set a clear timetable for the achievement of the objective, but don’t set it so far out that other, insignificant details end up getting in the way of progress.
