Goal setting is required within any good business to establish where you are in the sense of business and where you need to be to improve or achieve something (Goal).

When setting goals you will set up a "path" in the planning stage of how your going to achieve the goal, who will be involved, what everyones responsibilities are to aid you getting there. You will set a date (normally) against the goal so that you know WHEN you need to have achieved your aim. However, you will also set up review points between starting the path to achieve and actually achieve. These are used to make sure everyone is where they need to be and done what is required to get you tothe gaol point. If anything or anyone is causing a stoppage it is debated and actions put in place at review meetings to either remove an obsticle or work around it.
