Final answer:
Effective goals for a business should be achievable, relevant, and time-bound. They should be clearly written, achievable, and adaptable to changes in the program.
Step-by-step explanation:
Achievable (realistic, attainable, barriers could be overcome)
Relevant (supports other goals, makes sense)
Time-bound (has a specific target date or deadline)
Achievable and appropriate - When you identify your goals, you'll have to decide how you can make those goals come true. How will you achieve them? This requires planning.
You want to make sure that each goal is SMART:
Specific (detailed, clear, not very big or general, state exactly what's expected)
Measurable (quantifiable, concrete, observable progress toward achieving this goal)
Having made your goal SMART, you can set up the action steps to attain your goals by creating a tangible Action Plan.
