Setting professional development goals is a crucial first step in building a culture of success.
It's easy to get caught up in the day-to-day, and lose sight of what you're really trying to accomplish. But when you set goals for yourself, they're easier to keep track of and they make it easier to stay on track when things get busy.
So how do you set professional development goals? Here are some tips:
1. Know your strengths and weaknesses, and what areas you want to improve upon. This helps you narrow down your focus so that you can develop your strengths more fully and get better at the areas that need improvement.
2. Make sure each goal has a timeline for completion (because if it doesn't, it probably isn't really a goal).
3. Get feedback from people who know you best: your boss or supervisor, peers or subordinates who work closely with you every day. it might be hard at first, but as time goes on, they'll start seeing the difference in your performance when they've been given this information about where you're headed next!
4. Determine what skills you want your team members to have.
5. Brainstorm ways that your team can acquire those skills and apply them in their current roles.
6. Brainstorm ways that your team can apply those new skills in new roles or with new responsibilities. (For example, if you're looking at updating a software system, brainstorming tools and techniques for using that software.)
7. Develop a plan for how you will measure progress toward achieving your goals over time so that everyone knows when they've met their own personal performance standards!
