My guest on the Good Boss Bad Boss Podcast this month is Irial O'Farrell. She wrote the book that gets to the root of SMART objective setting and knows how to help leaders at all levels, take their goals from tick-box to top-notch. It's no surprise that 80% of companies have a formal system in place for managing objectives that cascade down through the organisation. It may surprise you to know that despite that, 66% of senior managers and 84% of frontline employees say they can't name or don’t understand the company goals. It sounds like something that needs to be fixed and Irial is here to help.
