‘Tis the season for goal-setting in our personal and professional lives. At Guild, employees set formal goals to help set themselves up for successes in the new year. We know that formalizing and writing goals puts people ahead of the game. That’s why we’ve offered courses on goal-setting in Guild University and encouraged employees to meet with their peers and supervisors to discuss objectives.
We use a SMART goal model to encourage specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound goals. We know what kind of talent we have here, so we want employees to challenge themselves in individual skills development and in helping achieve larger company objectives. We believe every goal matters.
To learn more about individual successes at Guild as well as our mission, vision and values, please take a look at our new site, The Guild Way.
