Setting SMART Goals

Lesson 4

Determine what it’s going to take to get to where you want to be at the end of next year, then develop some goals accordingly. Creating SMART goals (as defined below) can help you make the most of this exercise.



In this lesson, you’ll learn:


SMART goals are:


  • Specific: Clearly communicate exactly what you expect to achieve.
  • Measurable: Make the goal something you can count.
  • Assignable: Give one person the responsibility to complete the goal.
  • Relevant: Confirm that the goal moves your church toward its stated vision.
  • Time-related: Specify when you expect the goal to be completed.
