Goals
Goals your team can finish.
Each quarterly goal gets one owner, a finish line and milestones, and it ties back to the plan for the year. Check it every week: on track or off track.
Sample company: Harborline. Names are the Worker cast.
From the year to the week
Every goal ties to the plan.
The year sets the target. The quarter breaks it into goals. Each goal breaks into steps someone can finish.

What it does
Three habits, built in.
A goal with two owners has none
Each goal has one person who answers for it in the weekly meeting.
Done is never a debate
A number, a date or something that exists when it is done. Milestones show the way there.
One status, every week
On track or off track. Off-track goals go on the meeting agenda as issues.
Questions
Asked and answered.
How many goals should a team set?
Fewer than you think. A short list that gets done beats a long list that gets started.
What makes a good finish line?
A number, a date or something that exists when you are done: a process written down, a program launched, a team trained.
Do we have to set them up ourselves?
No. Send us your plan and your lists and we set up your goals for you.
