Perfect Phrases for Setting Performance Goals August 7, 2004 18 out of 21 found this review helpful
When I order this book, I thought I will get lots of ready-to-use "Goals" which I can esay to set my subordinate's Goals. But I am very disappoint. Lots of Goals listing in the books are actually the working items not goals. Like "Deposit completed backups...", "Schedule all planned shutdown...". Therefore this book help me to setup the work items of my subordinate not set the goals.

Perfect Phrases for Setting Performance Goals - not so perfect February 16, 2006 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
My reason for purchasing the book was to have a resouce for our employees to use as they are writing their goal statements based on the SMART goal matrix. I did not find it as helpful as I was hoping in demonstrating what a good, specific, measurable goals looks like. I think it gives you a few beginning words but should have expanded more within the examples.
An Effective Management Tool For Managing Right October 5, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am a business consultant for client companies whose business size is $30-50 million sales.I have been consulting for 27 years.I continue to find department heads and general management lacking the experience or know-how in establishing goals for their departments, associates or the over-all organization.
The subject tool, provides a common sense method for jump-starting management in the establishment of departmental and organization goals.I use this tool as a instructional approach. I have found that clients improve their communications and specific action. The tool gives the manager confidence.
Perfect Phrases for Setting Performance Goals February 22, 2006 0 out of 4 found this review helpful
Lots of great ideas and thoughts to better express a behavior.
Not What I thought it would be February 1, 2008 For some strange reason I thought that this would be more objectively based (measurements etc) giving examples of how to set SMART goals. But the Goals are very subjective, many Motherhood and apple pie, but they probabaly work well with the Companion book on performance review Phrases. I would have thought a better title would have been Setting performance objectives. An onbjective to my mind is something like. Improve your Quality", the goal should be something like 1 defect per 500 opportunities (Not six sigma I know!)
