We can thank Edwin Locke and Gary Latham for providing us with the blueprint
for modern day goal setting leadership when they published Toward a Theory of Task
Motivation and Incentive. "It is the process of developing, negotiating, and formalizing
the targets or objectives that a person is responsible for achieving in order to achieve their
desired results. Uhl- Bien and colleagues (Uhl-Bien et al. 2020). According to Locke and
Latham, setting goals is extremely important in the workplace, which they demonstrate in
this publication. Employees are motivated by goals that are clear and well defined, rather
than by directionless and mundane workloads, according to Locke's theory of
motivation. Throughout this theory, Locke and Latham demonstrate how this way of
thinking can increase not only productivity levels, but also sales and company values.
Establishing clear and concrete goals, no matter how difficult, can put employees on the
path to success while also increasing their likelihood of investing more in themselves and
in the company as a result of their efforts.
, According to Locke, the more difficult and intense the goal is, the more motivated and
determined the workers become. The five success principles described by Locke and Latham are
as follows: Clarity, Challenge, Commitment to the task at hand, Feedback, and Task Completion
Complexity. According to Locke and Latham's theory, the first step toward achieving success is
to establish goals that are both clear and efficient. Individuals will first need to assess the
situation and determine what their specific goals will be, as well as whether or not they will be
able to achieve them. As soon as a goal has been established, the next step is to write it down
with as many specifics as possible (using the SMART goal outline if necessary). The more
specific a person is, the clearer the path to that goal becomes. Using specifics such as a time
frame, milestones that must be achieved along the way and the metrics that must be used will
help you feel confident that you have a complete understanding of what needs to be done in
