Stretch Goals vs Stretch Experiences

Click here to hear my recent interview with BFM 89.9 on why setting goals alone is not enough.

How often have you heard in management meetings – “Our numbers are looking dismal, each one of you need to take on a new set of stretched goals to push our company performance to the next level!” If stretching the goals is all it takes to push for greater profits and productivity, then performance management should be the most straightforward of all organizational development practices. Yet, performance management is more than just a numbers game. In fact, the more we focus on numbers, the more numb we become - unless we fortify our approach with not just stretched figures but also with challenging experiences. In this week’s Raise Your Game, Joseph shares the experiences we can create to build sustainable high performance.
