DR. DE MEUTER FIT FOR STUDY

ATTAINABLE GOALS ATTAINABLE GOALS CORPORATE GOALS PERSONAL GOALS ENVIRONMENTAL LIMITATIONS CORPORATE ATTAINABLE GOALS PROF. DR. DE MEUTER FIT FOR STUDY

GOAL-SETTING : PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS 1. Ein Ziel wirkt nur dann handlungsauffordernd, wenn mit ihm eine klar umrissene Vorstellung verbunden ist. 2. Ein Ziel muß positiv formuliert sein, damit es aktivierend wirkt und positive Gefühle auslöst. 3. Ein Ziel muß unter eigener Kontrolle stehen, d.h. die Zielerreichung liegt in meiner Hand, ist durch eigenständige Anstrengung erfüllbar. PROF. DR. DE MEUTER FIT FOR STUDY

CRITERIA FOR FORMULATING GOALS * Ein Ziel muß eindeutig & konkret formuliert sein. * Ein Ziel muß anhand beobachteter Größen und/oder Verhaltensweisen überprüfbar sein. * Ein Ziel muß terminbezogen sein. Festzulegen sind entweder ein Zeitpunkt oder ein Zeitrahmen. * Ein Ziel muß durch Ober- und Untergrenzen definiert sein, damit das Leistungsniveau bestimmt wird. * Ein Ziel muß realistisch sein. Es sollte herausfordernd sein, aber keine Überforderung darstellen. Ebenso wirkt eine Unterforderung leistungsmindernd, weil sie nur einen geringen Belohnungswert hat. PROF. DR. DE MEUTER FIT FOR STUDY

CRITERIA FOR FORMULATING GOALS * Ein Ziel muß so formuliert sein, daß ich selbst beurteilen kann, ob ich dem Ziel nahegekommen bin oder nicht. * Ein Ziel muß widerspruchsfrei zu anderen Zielen sein. Zielkonflikte haben die Eigenschaft, die eigene Motivation und Entscheidungsfreude zu beeinträchtigen. * Ein Ziel muß in eine Rangreihe gebracht werden, damit die Zielpriorität deutlich wird. PROF. DR. DE MEUTER FIT FOR STUDY

GOALS CONFLICTS : CAUSES & SOLUTIONS * Die Zielformulierung ist zu allgemein – besser: konkrete präzise Zielformulierung * zu wenig geordnetes Zielsystem – besser: Ergänzung des Zielsystems und Prioritäten setzen * zu abstrakte Zielformulierung – besser: Zieldetaillierung und schrittweise Meßdatenerhebung * Auflösung von Zielkonflikten – Beim Aufbau eines Zielsystems müssen etwaige Zielkonflikte durch Gewichtung der Einzelziele, d.h. durch Setzen von Prioritäten aufgelöst werden.
