SMART goals help improve achievement and success. A SMART goal clarifies exactly what is expected and the measures used to determine if the goal is achieved and successfully completed.
A SMART goal is:
Specific (and strategic): Goal must be clearly defined —who and what?
Measurable: The success toward meeting the goal can be measured. Outcome must demonstrate levels of change or improvement.
Attainable: Goals are reasonable and can be achieved.
Relevant (results oriented): The goals are aligned with current tasks and projects and focus in one defined area
Time framed: Goals have a clearly defined time-frame including a target or deadline date.
Examples:
Not a SMART goal:
· Reach out to stakeholders.
Does not identify a measurement or time frame, nor identify why the improvement is needed or how it will be used.
SMART goal:
· The Department will launch communications with stakeholders by conducting three focus groups specific to needs assessment and funding by the end of the first quarter.
