12

Benefits Of Using The Model

• Forces management to think

• Enhances problem solving capabilities

• Improves the quality of decisions with the group approach

• Resource shortfalls are identified

• Resistance to change is reduced

• Builds a framework for performance improvement

13

Risks Of Using the Model

• The process is time consuming

• If planning and implementation are separate, responsibility is shirked

• Managers must be trained to respond when results are different than expected

14

What is goal setting?

• Strategic goal setting is an interactive and dynamic process involving constant review and assessment of:

– External environmental factors, now and in the future

– Internal business profile factors, now and in the future

– Performance tracking to measure results.

15

Preparing for effective Strategic Goal Setting

• The two most important issues of effective strategic goal setting are:

– Don’t wait for the culture to be in place before you begin.

– Make the necessary investment to keep the process alive.

16

Other important issues

• Remove the fear.• Keep an open mind and be honest with

yourself.• Be willing to challenge current practices.• Look outside for Best Available Practices.• Complete the full cycle of the model.• Use success as an opportunity to share

rewards.• Use failure as an opportunity to correct and

improve.
