Set SMART goals and track the KPIs

Training Theme

This training explores the methodology of SMART (Specific, Measurable, Accepted, Realistic, Time-bound) objectives and their monitoring via KPIs (Key Performance Indicators). It emphasizes the importance of defining clear, measurable objectives that are negotiated with employees. The training highlights that only 21% of employees are consulted for their objectives, revealing the importance of a more collaborative approach. In particular, it recommends, in the context of remote work, to focus on short-term objectives with frequent follow-up points. Participants learn how to formulate SMART goals, track them with relevant KPIs, and foster collective commitment to achieving them.
