Managers need occasionally ask themselves: 1) What should my high-priority responsibilities be right now. 2) How will I and others know how well I’m performing? This course consists of two closely related processes. The first helps you prioritize your work according to key results the organization is trying to achieve. The second helps you formulate clear goals that have high payoffs for the organization and use objective terms that support verification of results.
