Between now and the new year, it’s easy for work to slip through the cracks. Holiday planning and festivities can quickly become distractions and important tasks can be forgotten. But Kris Duggan, CEO of the enterprise goal platform BetterWorks, says setting the right kinds of goals can keep you focused—today as well as in the immediate future.
"Setting goals used to be an annual task that was put in a drawer and dusted off at the end of the year," he says. "Instead of using goals as an operational tool, employees would work on what they thought was best in the moment. What they wrote down didn’t really matter."
