6 Ways to Set Goals in an Unpredictable 2021
We asked founders how they're setting goals for the year ahead and plotting untraveled roads to success.
1. Track your progress.
“We set yearly goals and quarterly goals. As a fast-growing startup in the midst of economic uncertainty, it’s challenging to forecast what each new day will bring. So we have a weekly goal review meeting with each of our teams to align on how we are tracking toward both yearly and quarterly goals. This helps us course-correct swiftly and gets our whole team on the same page should objectives change.” — Jordan Nathan, founder and CEO, Caraway
