This workshop teaches goal setting and action planning skills to support workers to help service users explore options for overcoming barriers, identifying goals, and working out a plan for how to achieve them.
Supporting others to set goals and plan actions can have many benefits. Setting goals helps trigger new behaviours, guide focus, and helps people sustain momentum when addressing future challenges. Goals also help align your focus and promote self-reliance. By supporting others to set goals and plan actions, you can help them clarify what matters and give them a clear path and plan to pursue those goals. People who set goals are more productive, more creative, have more confidence, and are less stressed.
