#9 Setting Objectives People Want to Achieve

You start the year with clear objectives and good intentions. Everything looks aligned. Everyone agrees.
And yet, a few weeks later, energy drops, priorities blur, and you find yourself pushing instead of being followed.

Most objectives don’t fail because they are badly written. They fail because people never truly connect to them.

In this episode, we unpack what managers are rarely taught about objective setting and why commitment matters more than clarity:

• Why objectives that make sense still don’t create ownership
• How managers unknowingly turn objectives into pressure
• The hidden cost of too many priorities at the same time
• Why objectives disappear when they don’t show up in daily work
• How to create focus without micromanaging
• What managers need to change before expecting real engagement

This isn’t about frameworks or performance systems.
It’s about understanding how people experience objectives and how that experience determines whether they move forward willingly or resist silently.

If you want objectives that guide your team instead of draining them, this episode is for you.
