Goals

Overview


The basis of success is the clear determination of goals.

There are several criteria which characterize effective formulation of goals:

  • Goals should be SMART

  • Achievement of goals must be beneficial for every person involved

  • All parties have to be convinced

  • Clear planning of activities 

  • Consideration of strategies to overcome obstacles

  • Safeguarding that all parties possess the necessary competences

Values as the Basis of Life

Overview


Honesty, respect and tolerance – those are frequently listed values which turn to be always valid. However, one has to ask if those values are lived in reality. No matter if we look in the private or in the societal field: despite intensive discussions it becomes more and more difficult to agree on common values.  If values are not lived they are meaningless.

At large values are defined as that what is seen as good, desirable, enriching, gratifying, lovable, useful and conducive at the private and societal level. Values can be divided in different classes such as aesthetic, religious, moral, artistic and economic ones.

Within the workshop we discuss individual values of the private and professional field. Since they determine the way we think and act, individual values are of tremendous importance. Subsequently the individual values are placed into the value system of a concrete company. On this occasion particular emphasis is placed on the role of shared values.
