Targets 2 contd.. Your policy drives your system and outlines the goals, or objectives. Targets are the means of achieving these objectives. You will need to quantify your targets, set realistic timescales, and consider a method for tracking the progress and reviewing the targets. Careful thoughts needs to go into what you are promising to deliver - you will be judged on your achievements. Before setting targets managers will need to consider several factors: - What are the needs and aspirations of your employees, customers and other stakeholders?
Refer back to the analysis of the survey carried out during the review by skilled workers. - Are there any financial implications or constraints, do you have the budget you need?
Budget requirements are part of top management commitment. - Have you agreed who will be responsible for different or new tasks?
Plan with skilled workers who will need to carry out specific tasks Employees at all levels across the organisation need to know what the targts are, and their roles, in order to participate in their achievement. Make sure you have efficient two-way communication.
Mangers need to develop and agree targets with the help of those skilled workers who are going to carry them out. Click for Target Tips | | Tasks: - Managers & Skilled workers together agree targets & timescales.
