    Locke's goal setting theory states that setting goals is essential for improving task performance. Goals should follow the SMART criteria of being specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. When goals are specific, it can increase performance more than vague or abstract goals. Collectivist cultures may see greater benefits from goal setting than individualist cultures.
