Part I-A - Performance Goals
Goals are tailored to the specific results desired from an individual directly linked to the organization’s (division/facility/service area/agency) strategy. Goal should be written to the “meets expectations” level, so if you reach the goal, you will receive that rating for it. Goals should meet the criteria of a SMART goal. Given the dynamic nature of some jobs, goals may need to be revised to reflect changing priorities during the review period.
These goals were mutually developed by the employee and his/her immediate supervisor: Employee Signature ________________________________________ Date ____________
