Using Window Analysis to Prioritize Your Big Goals
Now that you’ve done the work to identify a bunch of potential Big Goals, it’s time to start narrowing them down. Unfortunately, you can’t do it all. The Window Analysis exercise helps to figure out which goals to focus on by helping you determine whether you have the resources and backing to support the execution of the goal.
Here’s how it works. Using the downloadable worksheet below, score each potential Big Goal out of 5 by answering these three questions:
- Do we have a leader that is passionate about it?
- How motivated is the team to work on it?
- Is there urgency/alignment on it?
These questions will determine whether you can actually achieve the goal. The higher the score, the more likely you are to achieve it! Continue to prioritize the ones with the greater likelihood of success and that fits well with your organization’s goals.
The Window Analysis Exercise allows us to make smart choices while strategic planning and using our resources wisely to reach our goals!
Narrow down your Big Goals and focus on what really matters.
