Goal-setting framework: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound.
SMART is a widely used goal-setting framework that ensures objectives are well-defined and achievable. SMART stands for: Specific (clear and unambiguous), Measurable (progress can be tracked quantitatively), Achievable (realistic given resources and constraints), Relevant (aligned with broader team and organizational goals), and Time-bound (with a defined deadline). HR teams use SMART goals in performance management, personal development planning, and OKR-setting to ensure goals drive meaningful outcomes.
