SGA Youth & Family Services, an organization providing social services in some of Chicago's most challenged and consistently underserved communities, has chosen Baker Communications to provide SMART Goals training for its entire staff. SGA was looking for a respected and experienced training partner who could work with them to design training around effective goal setting and activity management skills. Baker was able to offer SGA a program that teaches goal setting, tying activities to goals, and effectively prioritizing activities and tasks relating to goal fulfillment.
A SMART Goals Expert and Senior Level Instructor from Baker Communications will meet with SGA’s personnel to deliver the skill workshop. Participants in this interactive training event will learn how to implement key activity management practices and strategies such as goal-setting, prioritizing, and tying activities to goals, helping establish and maintain a focus on their most critical and high-value tasks to increase productivity and efficiency. The SMART Goals strategy will help ensure that goals are well-defined, achievable, and concrete, preventing them from becoming vague “moving targets” and keeping staff activity focused on accomplishing critical tasks.
