Used for: Structuring task delegation so instructions are clear, measurable, and actionable without requiring mind-reading Praised: Eliminates fuzzy instructions, backed by 35 years of goal-setting research, p... vs: Alternative to vague instructions like 'improve our marketing' or 'do your best'

"The fix to this is just one simple tool that changed how I run my companies. It's called SMART. When someone gives me an instruction that isn't according to the SMART rules, I hand it back, because decoding a lazy ask should not actually be your job."
