And, people have important goals that they hire a coach to help them with. We should all respect that. But as coaches and mentors we need to think about goals in a nuanced way. For example, there are approach goals and avoidance goals; there are performance goals and learning goals; there are short-term goals and long-term goals. The goals that people talk about in coaching can be pointing to much bigger, developmental issues. Knowing about these different types of goals and different ways of addressing them will help us understand our clients more clearly. If we better understand our clients, we can be of better service to them.":1,"#From David Megginson: I take an adult development perspective to the usefulness of goals. In my twenties I was too busy trying stuff out, exploring and learning from experience to set goals. Then in my mid-thirties I found myself helping organisations set better goals, and thought I ought to be a role model myself. I got excited and stimulated by goal setting cycles as short as a day and as long as a lifetime. Then, in my sixties I got to the point where having a clearly articulated purpose was all that I needed and the goals fell away. Now in my seventies I’m looking forward to what the next phase of his development is going to look like.":1,"#From David Clutterbuck: I originally came to the issue of goals from a positivist perspective. I was inspired by the great Peter Drucker, who made a powerful case against the dangers of vague objectives and institutionalized purposelessness. However, when I started to research the dynamics of mentoring relationships I found no significant relationships between goal-related variables and positive outcomes, such as the perceived quality of the relationship. Over time I have explored the efficacy of standard HR practice and have found that most charts, grids, and competency frameworks are of dubious value because they start from assumptions rooted in simple, linear systems, rather than complex, adaptive systems. There is a need for coaches to sensitize themselves to the complexity of goal setting, and I suspect there is a role for coaches and mentors to become front-line troops for testing goal theories and providing new insights into the role of goals in human change.":1,"#From Susan David: Each of us brings a personal orientation to goals, and I myself am an avid goal setter. At the same time, as an emotions researcher and a coaching psychologist who works with senior executives, I have noticed how goals, the very structures that are intended to direct our attention and energy to what is truly important, can paradoxically turn us away from these objectives and take us down paths of avoidance, simplistic thinking, and dissatisfaction. I don’t think goals are going away any time soon, and that’s not what we’re advocating for. I do think we need to be aware of when we’re trying to use goals to avoid complexity. We need to embrace the reality that people are complex, the world is complex, and our coaching has to reflect that. Sometimes we run into a coaching situation that is best addressed by formulating a specific, measurable goal, but all too often that isn’t the case.":1,"#The book challenges the notion that goals are simple, and that we can solve all of our clients’ problems by coming up with specific, measurable, challenging goals. The road to the finish line is rarely straight; it has diversions and pot holes and intersections that point in twenty different directions. Sometimes we find out that the finish line itself is the wrong one. There’s so much to learn about human motivation, persistence, and the limitations as well as the complexity that we encounter when we’re trying to achieve something new. The powerful thing about this book is that it includes perspectives from many great minds, with each of them examining the issue from a different perspective.":1,"#Challenging assumptions":1,"#Michael Cavanagh contributed a great chapter on coaching called “New Paradigms for Complex Times”. He argues that we’ve entered an era in which we have to move beyond linear thinking. We can’t look at our clients and think they’re going to move from point A to point B in a straight line. We need to learn to understand ourselves and our clients as part of a system, and we need models that help us make sense of the complexity. The book is really a resource for coaches to take their learning and their practice in this direction.":1,"#We were surprised by how many contributors included complexity theory in their work. We expected this for the chapter on the “Chaos Theory of Careers”, but we found that a number of other authors brought complexity theory into their work.":1,"#In a very different chapter, two organizational psychologists apply chaos theory to career management and goal-setting. They point out that when we set SMART goals we’re assuming that we have a simple problem occurring in a slowly changing environment. The reality is that we usually have a complex problem in a fastchanging environment. They offer interesting ideas about how to address this within coaching relationships.":1,"#The book contains interesting ideas from people who are looking at goal-setting through different lenses, and applying what they know to coaching and mentoring. Scholars from the Neuroleadership Institute describe a “Social Neuroscience Approach to Goal Setting”, using insights about the brain to inform coaching. For example, they explain that the “why” and the “how” of goal-setting are associated with distinct, non-overlapping brain regions. This suggests that it might be most effective to look at these two aspects of goal-setting separately, and also to help clients make explicit links between “why” and “how”. There’s so much we’re learning about the brain these days and it’s fascinating to see people applying this to coaching practice.":1,"#Perspectives from multiple disciplines":1,"#So whether people don’t have goals, or have very clear precise ones, there can be, and probably really should be, more to the coaching.":1,"#On the other hand, some clients come into coaching with very specific, very measurable goals, like “I want to lose this much weight”, or “I want to hit this sales target.” In this case, it’s interesting to look at whether that’s all there is to the coaching. Bob Kegan’s chapter is called “The Goals Behind the Goals”, and there’s a beautiful passage where he says that goals are a type of “Trojan Horse” for deeper development. Most of the problems that people bring to coaching are not straightforward, technical problems, because if they were they would have already solved them on their own. Rather, clients bring issues that challenge their deeper beliefs systems and mindsets, and this requires adaptation and fundamental change. These developmental adaptations are the “goals behind the goals”.":1,"#Most coaches and mentors would agree that there’s so much to developmental relationships that is not goal-related, or at least that is not about driving toward a specific, measurable,predefined target. There are clients who come into a coaching relationship with only a only vague idea of what they want to work on, and it can be important for them to stay in that undefined place for a period of time, rather than rushing to answers or action. If the coaching or mentoring relationship becomes prematurely crowded with objectives and “to-do” lists, it becomes just another source of stress for the client. One client who was interviewed as part of some research for the book said, “Hey, I can set SMART goals on my own! I want to use coaching to look at the messy issues.” So an important part of coaching or mentoring can be to create a reflective space for the client. Some of the authors in the book talk about “fuzzy goals”, or goals that are far in the future and might be more broad or vague, and we think these are important concepts for developmental practitioners to consider.":1,"#Moving relationships beyond goals":1,"#Challenging goals can even be dangerous when they move people toward risky or unethical behaviour. There have been studies showing that when people are given very specific, very challenging goals, they will take bigger risks, like betting all of their money in the first round of a gambling task. So goals can play a psychological trick that lowers people’s caution. People are also more likely to be dishonest if they fall just short of a goal. Coaches and mentors need to think carefully about how goals are structured, since the purpose of a developmental relationship is certainly not to limit people or move them toward bad behaviour. It is to expand clients’ horizons and help them move closer to their best possible selves.":1,"#There’s a well-known distinction that originally came from Carol Dweck, between performance goals and learning goals. When people are assigned performance goals, it can make them feel as if they have to prove their competence, whereas if they’re encouraged to learn, they want to improve their competence. Richard Boyatzis and Anita Howard have a chapter in Beyond Goals in which they talk about how performance goals can activate the “ought self”, as in “I ought to do such and such.” This can arouse negative feelings and limit people’s ideas of what’s possible. Of course, this is the opposite of what we usually want to do in coaching.":1,"#We all know the word “goal” means an aim or desired destination, but if you trace its etymology, the word also means a boundary or limit. When do goals help, and when do they interfere with desired outcomes? Researchers have demonstrated that if a task is well-defined and the person has the skill set to achieve it, a specific, challenging goal can be helpful. Studies have been performed with logging crews and typists, and people doing other types of routine work. But if the task requires learning or novelty, challenging goals can be problematic. They rush people to action, rather than encouraging appropriate exploration. Therefore, it’s important to identify when a goal might hinder learning or creativity.":1,"#The limits of goals":1,"#Based on all of this, we thought it was time to pull together leading thinkers from coaching and mentoring, and get their take on goals. The result is Beyond Goals, a book that advances goal-setting theory. For example, Sir John Whitmore is an originator of the GROW model, a goal-setting model that’s often used in coaching. He contributes a chapter called “GROW grows up”, in which he describes the role of goals in his more recent work on transpersonal coaching. Gordon Spence and Ed Deci apply self-determination theory to coaching, which hasn’t been done up until now, and they examine how this affects goal-setting. Kathy Kram describes the evolution of her thinking in the field of mentoring. Anthony Grant provides his latest theory and research on goals. With such a wonderful group of scholars, the book turned out to be full of cutting-edge ideas. In this article we describe some of the insights we gained from our work on Beyond Goals. 1":1,"#We were also very interested in an academic article called “Goals Gone Wild” that had been published in 2009 by a group of scholars, including Lisa Ordonez from the University of Arizona and Max Bazerman from Harvard Business School. The article was not specifically about coaching but it was about goal-setting in organizations, so we found it highly relevant. The basic premise was that goals were being overprescribed in management settings, and this could lead to bad outcomes, like unnecessary risk-taking and unethical behaviour.":1,"#As practitioners and scholars of coaching and mentoring, we noticed that goalsetting is pervasive in developmental relationships. Practices like SMART goals (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, time-bound) go largely unquestioned. We thought that, while goals have a place in coaching, we really should look at these issues more critically. In particular, we saw more novice coaches using goal-setting models in rigid ways, as if they were depending on these processes to get them through a coaching engagement. We questioned the usefulness of this because it seemed that strict adherence to goal-setting could make a coaching relationship somewhat mechanical and transactional, and people could get corralled into goals that weren’t really appropriate for them.":1,"#PM World Journal":1,"#Consider that uncomfortable workplace moment that comes a second or two after a colleague or a client says something that feels wrong.

She wrote for Psychologies and Get The Gloss in the UK and was been featured on the BBC as a career expert.":1,"#So often, when we use a GROW approach, what we find is that people change their goals based on these 3 simple questions. And that means that when they do come to focus, they focus on the things that really mean something to them and the organization.":1,"#And this is a really important part of the GROW framework, because the next step is, “So where are you now?” The reality. And the third step is, “What options do you have to get there?” And the fourth step is, “What do you actually going to do?” And if we don't spend time in the goal phase, being really clear, creating emotional connection to what has to be achieved, then we're simply going through the motions, and people waste time and energy trying to deliver something that actually isn't the real goal at all.":1,"#And then the third question—and this is the really important one—is, “What the success look like?” “What does it feel like? How will you think? How will you behave? What will be going on when you achieve this goal?” As leaders, we have to be prepared to dive deeper, to be more curious about what success would look like.":1,"#And then we follow up with the second question, which is, “What's important to you about that?” And that gives them and us an opportunity to hear the underlying motivations. What really drives this person? What connects them to this goal?":1,"#So when we ask them what about their goals for this year or this six months or this project, the first question should be, “What do you really want?” And then, good coach-like leaders, they're silent because silence is a coaching skill. Well, let the other person figure out what it is they really want.":1,"#So as leaders, part of our responsibility is to make sure that there's a natural energy and connection that comes from the goal that’s set, and there's a very simple way to do that. That's by focusing on 3 simple questions.":1,"#Many of you will know already the GROW correct coaching framework, where the acronym GROW stands for goal, reality, options, and will. I particularly like this model's approach because of the emphasis placed on getting clearer on the goal. In particular, as leaders, we often hear a goal, encourage people to pursue it—but actually, they pursue it because they’ve been told to, because it's a corporate will, because their bonus gets paid on it, rather than because they have a natural energy and connection to the goal.":1,"#Often, people spend their time and energy pursuing goals that are not integral to the organization.

And the first part of the process is to identify all the steps that need to be taken to achieve the goal and setting up a timeline to achieve them. You could do this yourself as the team lead, or this may be one of the activities you do as a team. When you are working on a project, your process should include regular meetings for the project staff. The next part of process is to centralize information and decentralize work. What I mean by this is that if you make sure everyone has the information they need to complete their portion of the project, then you can assign or allow staff to work relatively independently on the work that needs to get done.":1,"#The second part is teams. Team members can have a lot of different characteristics. They can have different levels of experience or knowledge or seniority. Team members should, however, have the same common goals of making the project successful.

If you think about teaching a little child to ride a bicycle and you're holding up the back of the bicycle and you're walking around or you're running with them, eventually you're going to let go. And when you let go and they're riding the bicycle, they're going to crash. I don't know that it's ever happened that a child learned how to ride a bicycle the very first time. When they crash, their face is angry, sometimes with you, but at the failure itself. There's some embarrassment there because it's not going right. It's a really powerful moment to say, look where you are and look where I am. I didn't ride the bicycle there, you did. All you need to do is learn how to ride it farther. And at that moment you can watch the face go from this disappointment and this anger and this frustration back to hope because what you're showing them is how it's starting to pay off and they're starting to see that this approach has an outcome that they can see.":1,"#And the second thing is, what is the first evidence?
