BIG GOALS: The Science of Setting Them, Achieving Them, and Creating Your Best Life

BIG GOALS (Wiley, November 2024) In the transformative landscape of productivity driven by AI and innovative technologies, there’s a visible need for a modern approach to goal setting and achievement. Big Goals: The Science of Setting Them, Achieving Them, and Creating Your Best Life, delivers 15 years of new research infused with the exciting findings of positive psychology, delving into effective goal setting practices for both personal growth and corporate excellence, with a step-by-step approach to high achievement.

This book is highly accessible in its comprehensive framework for goal accomplishment, with a nod to Locke and Latham’s Goal Setting Theory(GST) and an updated, expansive perspective on how to apply the newest science on mindset, grit, Artificial Intelligence, resilience, and gender perspectives.

The book also introduces renowned executive coach Caroline Adams Miller’s novel BRIDGE methodology, which addresses the “how” between the assignment of Objectives and Key Results (OKRs)  and the desired results known as Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) – metrics used in most, if not all, organizations around the world since the 1970s. Miller breaks down case study examples of high-profile business failures and successes to provide a rounded perspective on what needs to go right in order for goals to be realized.

Readers of this book will gain a nuanced understanding of the science behind goal setting, with practical tools and unique worksheets to use on their goal-achieving journey starting as soon as today.

Big Goals empowers individuals across all ages to pursue their ambitions with a newfound sense of confidence and mastery, whether they are athletes, CEOs, students, or retired men and women looking for “reinvention.”

“Caroline Miller has done a superb job of translating Goal Setting Theory, which I developed with Edwin Locke, as well as the empirical research on which it is based, into everyday, meaningful, memorable language so that all of you can put our findings into practice immediately to bring about changes you desire on and off your jobs.” 
Dr. Gary Latham, co-founder of Goal Setting Theory, author of “Becoming the Evidence-Based Manager”
 
“This is the best goal setting book ever written. Period.”
