Ask 5 trainees to present their goals and ask how it feels

Setting own goals does not mean they cannot be changed. These goals should always be reviewed and take into account that situations change, technology changes, new ideas come.

However, highlight that being accountable to these goal settings is important. Also discuss what needs to be done if there are barriers.

Besides setting goals, it is also important to set and implement these goals in a specific way. Use individual Metacards, where steps are individually mentioned. Mix up the steps and have the trainees decide in which order they belong and why (identify the first step to get the group moving). Trainees should be prepared to discuss and describe their reasoning for the order. For example: you cannot set goals if you don’t analyze where you are now…. You can’t develop a timeline if you don’t know what your obstacles are etc.
