Blog #4: Goals

Goal setting is definitely a theory that I think needs to always be applied to companies or organizations. There are two types of goals that employees should work towards. The first goal should be the company’s goal for itself. The second goal should be the employee’s goal to reach the companies goal. At my work we have monthly monetary goals we need to meet. These goals are know from the very first day of the month and we begin working towards it immediately. Each employee has their own personal monetary goal they have to meet each day in order to contribute to the final result. I find that having goals really helps to keep me on track of our sales and how our spa is doing. Plus, we get an incentive. If we meet our monthly goals we get a bonus! Having goals allows for the employees to hold themselves accountable for their responsibility in the grand scheme of their company.
