Goal achievement as an effective Motivational tool

Do you use goal setting to motivate your employees? 

To continue profitable operation every business organization has its own organizational goal/s that it wants to achieve and infuse inside the psyche of its employees. This is done as often as possible to inspire the employees.

The best method to achieve the goal is by presenting data that would clearly show what the organization wants to achieve for a specific time period. For example a sales or manufacturing business would usually present goals (thru figures). That it needs to achieve for a specific time period, this will now therefore serve as the Motivational tool.

The question now is how you can make this a reality and not just a goal on paper that could easily be forgotten by employees.

Here are the following steps that you may want to use to ensure the achievement of the goal:

1. Always remind your employees about it as often as possible.

2. Offer your wholehearted support logistical, moral and financial. (Your constant reminder is useless without your support.)

3. Check on the progress of the goal periodically.

4. Update them on the progress of the goal.

5. Always have an open line of communication.

6. Repeat steps One to five as needed. - Marino J. Dasmarinas
