Broken Arrow Chamber Small Business Series: Goal Setting for Real Growth
March 25th 11:30A Lunch and Networking
Noon Goal Setting Program
Goals aren’t just items on a checklist, they’re the strategic bridge between your mission, your vision, and the daily actions that move your business forward. In this session, Coach James Herbert will walk you through how goals fit into the bigger picture of running a successful small business, from high-level purpose down to practical tactics.
You’ll learn why goals are the stepping stones toward your long-term vision, how each win builds momentum, and what separates a good goal from an ineffective one. James will break down proven frameworks, share examples you can apply immediately, and guide you through evaluating your own goals for clarity, impact, and alignment.
Whether you’re launching new initiatives or trying to stay focused in the day-to-day, this workshop will equip you with tools to set intentional goals—and actually achieve them.

"The best way to predict the future is to create it." Peter Drucker
Goal setting is the strategic, intentional process of defining specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) objectives to guide actions and track progress.

Tina owned a chain of 15 commercial gyms, thriving on pre-dawn workouts and client crises, but expansion stalled, staff burnout mirrored hers, and life shrank to ledgers. Revenue growth halved, passion faded amid the treadmill of daily ops.

"Excellent communication doesn’t just happen naturally. It is a product of process, skill, climate, relationship and hard work."
