AKL Module 3.3 – Goal Setting: Incremental Steps to the Mission

📌 Overview
In this lesson, we continue developing mission by focusing on the importance of goal setting and measurable outcomes in leadership. You’ll discover that vision must be translated into specific, trackable objectives in order to produce real results. This session emphasizes that effective leaders not only inspire direction but also define success clearly, ensuring that progress can be measured, evaluated, and improved over time.


📖 Scripture Focus:
“By this is My Father glorified, that you bear much fruit…”

John 15:8 (NASB)


Key Takeaways:

✅ Mission requires clear goals – without them, vision cannot be measured or achieved.

✅ Leaders must focus on outcomes, not just activity.

✅ Specific, measurable goals create accountability and alignment.

✅ Breaking large goals into smaller milestones makes vision achievable.

✅ Fruitfulness is a key indicator of effective leadership.
