What Are Your Goals?
The rules of this question are simple.
- Explain why you think goals are important
- Be specific
- Discuss goals that match your values with those of the company
- List 3 Personal
- List 3 Professional
I’m glad you asked. I make it a point to define and write down my goals - professional and personal - on a quarterly basis. I’m a very competitive person so often times my goals reflect that competitiveness. I also happen to believe that goals that are unable to be measured are worthless. My current personal goals are
- To run a marathon
- To volunteer 10 hours per week
- To read one book per week
and my current professional goals are
- Improve my sales ranking from Top 10% to Top 5%
- Share one “best practice” per week using the my company’s knowledge management system
- Become the “product knowledge expert” for my district
