Locke and Latham's Goal Setting Model

Locke and Latham's Goal Setting Theory emphasizes that clear, challenging goals improve performance. When goals are specific and difficult yet attainable, individuals are more motivated to put in effort and persist. Feedback on progress helps adjust efforts and stay focused. The process fosters higher motivation and goal commitment, leading to better results. Essentially, setting well-defined, challenging goals with regular feedback enhances performance by guiding focus and effort effectively.
