When setting behavioral goals for the future you should
When setting behavioral goals for the future, you should a. develop the healthy new behavioral patterns as soon as possible. b. work on as many components as possible to increase your chances for success. c. start with components that are most challenging and that you have failed to achieve in the past. d. select one or two components you intend to work on in the next 2 months. Behavior-based goals should focus on desired future performance. Thinking in terms of desired performance creates an opportunity to be descriptive, painting a future-oriented picture of the preferred behavior and the benefits it will bring. This just makes sense and is foundational to best practice employee coaching and feedback.
