Goal Setting

Goal Setting is a process of identifying what you want to achieve and establishing measurable steps to guide your actions. Coursera's goal setting catalogue provides you with the tools and techniques to define clear, achievable goals and to plan the steps necessary to reach them. You'll learn about the importance of setting SMART goals (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound), techniques for prioritizing your goals, methods for tracking your progress, and strategies for overcoming obstacles that may arise. Whether you're a leader, a team member, a student, or an individual looking to improve your personal life, these skills will enable you to move forward with confidence and clarity.
