In demanding project environments, it can be difficult to step back and set goals that provide direction and motivation. When done well however, effective goal setting can help individuals and teams focus their efforts and make steady progress.
Who this course is for
This course is designed for delegates from the same organisation.
It is aimed at practices that want to empower their people to take ownership of their personal development. It is particularly suitable for those looking to set achievable goals, maintain focus amid competing priorities, and translate their growth into stronger project performance.
It is equally suited to individuals at any stages in their careers, and it can be tailored to suit groups of senior or more junior delegates as required.
We recommend that the number of delegates is limited to between eight and 12. This is so that we can engage with everyone and pick up questions.
