Lesson 1. Goal Setting Basics

Taking charge of a team can be a terrifying experience at first. The idea of taking charge of a group or leading a business can strike fear into anyone. However, you may soon find that there are certain tactics that make leading a more fluid, enjoyable experience for everyone involved.

Lesson 2. Why Are Goals Important?

Goals are ambitions, plans, and efforts to achieve an end result. Goals are essential to the success of your business. Without setting goals, your business is less likely to see growth and prosperity. Failing to create and aspire to goals can be detrimental and even fatal to your business.

Lesson 3. Ground Rules for Goal Setting in Business

You never can dig too deeply when you are determining your goals. Tying your goals to your passions and purpose or the mission and principles of your business can help motivate you. However, there are some tricks and guidelines to help you set strong, effective goals.

Lesson 4. Creating a Goal

You still may think that goals sound a bit threatening, but from previous lessons, you know that they are worth the effort. In this lesson, goals will be broken down into a step by step guide.

Lesson 5. Effective Goal Setting and Management

Making these benefits work for you will take some effort from you and your employees. If you recall the previous lesson, many of these guidelines will overlap. However, applying them to others will be distinctive from applying them to yourself. Have patience and determination and these benefits will be yours to reap.

Lesson 6. Effective Goal Setting and Interpersonal Skills

Interpersonal skills encompass a wide variety of abilities, many of them focusing on how to communicate effectively with others. Some such skills might be forming questions, listening capably, as well as reading social cues and body language.

Lesson 7. Using Assertiveness to Your Advantage

Assertiveness, like interpersonal skills, has a lot to do with the way humans communicate. Mainly, it happens to come up in communication and social skill training. Because it is so distinct from other areas of communication, assertiveness almost always is given its own specific area of training.

Lesson 8. Changing the Behavior of Others

Goals can be used to help you improve just about any skill but there are a few key areas where they are indispensable. One of these areas affects your managerial skills again, but because this is a much more in-depth task, it deserves special attention.

Lesson 9. Managing Priorities

For any business plan or initiative to achieve success, your priorities need to work together with your goals.

Lesson 10. Planning

Planning and goal setting can work together exceptionally well. As you previously learned, planning is a necessary part of setting smart goals. So how can you use your goals to create a plan? What is the process? What makes a good plan anyway? Here are some answers.

Lesson 11. Delegating

In order to make your business into everything you want it to be, you have to start delegating your tasks. This is a crucial point in striving to achieve your goals. Sometimes, goals in business can be too big for one person to accomplish all on their own.

Lesson 12. Options When Encountering Obstacles

It does not matter what your goal is. Whether it is personal, professional, fun, serious, black, white or anything in between, you always will encounter obstacles along your way. This never fails in the world of goals. It should not deter you from setting goals.

Lesson 13. Why Individuals Do Not Reach Their Goals

It can seem that those obstacles creep out of the woodwork as soon as you set to work on achieving your goal, but there are other aspects of life that can separate you and your goal. If you familiarize yourself with what is keeping you from your goal, you can more readily account for them when planning and take them in stride.

Lesson 14. Strategies to Optimize Reaching Your Goals

So what is the difference between the goals that you achieve and ones that you abandon? How do you set goals that always are, not just occasionally achievable?

Lesson 15. Where to Go from Here

Goal setting, as you may have noticed, is about much more than anything that you can write on paper. Goal setting does not end once you complete your goal. Making a lasting, permanent change to your life lasts long after your goal has been accomplished.
