We were quick to release the importance of good organizational goals, and have strived to achieve them persistently.
The fewer organizational goals you set up in your workspace, the better you can boost your employee engagement. The focus should be only on the key result and some strict guidelines along the way for achieving the common goal. If you set up too many organizational goals, the employees tend to give less importance to them or forget them.
There are short-term and long-term goals in an organization. These include individual team and employee goals and the overall business objective of the company. All the goals should ultimately lead to one result but ensure that you do not micromanage the employees at every step else they would feel suffocated.
The key to set organizational goals is simplicity. A deliverable outcome is necessary and do not set the bar so high that it cannot be achieved. Simple and effective organizational goals can be set by following the points mentioned below:
Keep it clear and under control
Keep your goals clear and let each employee know what they are working for. If you let them all work in an unclear atmosphere, it will begin to affect their performance and productivity.
Establish realistic expectations
Set achievable and realistic targets for individuals and teams and also include thoughtful explanations on why each target is important for the organization. Employees should feel that their contributions actively push the company towards reaching its goals. With realistic expectations, they will feel more motivated and work with greater enthusiasm.
Set Smart Goals
Not only defining key results is important but your goals should be defined in a specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and timely term. If you keep these elements in mind, you can set the goals that are clear and realistic.
Track employee progress
You can track the employee progress once you have defined measurable key outcomes and goals. This is a great way to establish transparency and also facilitate healthy feedback based on the numbers. You can plan regular meetings with employees to discuss their progress and also give them an opportunity to seek advice.
Do not micromanage individuals or teams
Employees should not be held to rigid targets as this will pressurize them and reduce their productivity. Micromanaging increases employee dissatisfaction and makes them feel that they are not capable enough.
Create joint accountability
Joint accountability is when every single employee in the organization feels responsible for the company’s progress. Companies need to break down tall towers and open up channels of communication. You need to establish a very clear and shared company objective and make the system very transparent and approachable.
Clear and well-set organizational goals help you achieve progress. Your employees will also feel important, worthy and will work towards a common goal.
