LIFT Leaders: Set Goal Action Plans with Your Team Members
After a goal is approved, it's time to put it into action. Work with team members to create an action plan for goals at risk of not being met by year end. Similar to a project plan, a goal action plan outlines the steps to take every quarter.
Team members can
create goal action plans
to help achieve their goals. Managers can
review and comment
on plans as part of regular check-ins to monitor goal progress.
After you've completed the process, you'll have a goal action plan that can be saved, emailed or printed. Review action plans regularly and check in with your team members to monitor goal progress and any action you need to take to support them in achieving goals.

Start the New Year Right by Identifying Career Stallers
Career stallers are things that hold us back or make us less successful.
For example, do you hesitate to make unpopular or difficult decisions? Fear failure or discourage calculated risk-taking?
Success in our roles and in transitioning to new roles requires us to acquire new skills and
let go of things that don't serve us well.
Career stallers are important to identify so we can focus on growth and development for ourselves and our team members.
Visit the
LIFT resource page to learn more. In the navigation on the left under Competencies, click on a LIFT level (for example, Leader of Self) to review competencies and career stallers for that level.
Also, visit the
FYI page
to learn more about the book "For Your Improvement" and how it can be a resource for growing great leaders.
