Objective: Foster growth in each member of the team in this quick and easy goal setting session.

Content: Providing a career path is important to employee retention, satisfaction and engagement. Great pet care businesses should always be trying to improve and grow the skills of their team. Setting individual goals for self-development will help keep the team focused on improvement that will carry them to more advanced positions on the team.

Goal setting doesn’t have to be a long and complicated process! Each member of the team will identify a single goal for skill development that will help take them to the next level in your pet care business. A template is provided to make this activity quick and easy!

Prior to Lunch & Learn Session:

Review the content of this activity to ensure you are comfortable presenting the material. Prepare your thoughts to share with the team on the importance of this topic.
Print a copy of the SMART Goal template for each participating member. We encourage senior management to participate in the activity as well.

By setting measurable and attainable goals, a supervisor can not only guide improvement in employee performance, but also can actively help strengthen the business and enhance its reputation as an employer of choice. Managers should give some thought to which skill would be a good next step for each member of their team to guide them in the goal setting if necessary.
Each manager should be prepared to schedule time with each team member in the coming week to discuss the goal one on one.
