Episode 7: When Goal Setting Backfires (and How to Avoid It) w/ Dr. David Altounian and Dr. Mary Dunn

Goal setting is a challenge few companies master. One of the most common dysfunctions is this: Employees get maniacally focused on one goal, but then, when that goal is achieved, everything falls apart.

In this episode, Joel speaks to two St. Edward’s University professors who have worked on this very problem: Dr. David Altounian, Associate Professor of Entrepreneurship, and Dr. Mary Dunn, Associate Professor of Management. Pulling from experience as practitioners and academics, they share a smarter approach to company goal setting—one that will help employees succeed together without everything going off a cliff at the end.
