A goal is a desired result that you envision for your team and organizational success. Goal$-$setting helps you break down the things you want to achieve into more manageable steps so that you can gauge your progress. This week you will apply the goal$-$setting strategy covered in Coach's Huddle. Completing this assignment and the feedback you receive on it will help prepare you for the Week $6$ assignment.

Scenario

As you know, Hometown Cars has been struggling to meet profit margins in all three of its departments. As the general manager, you decide to set a new long$-$term goal for the sales team to increase car sales by $10\%$ over the next year.
