One benefit of using the SMART design is that it

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

When evaluating the SMART design in organizational or performance planning, several potential benefits could be considered, and each option merits scrutiny.
Option 1: 'focuses on avoiding stress.' This statement is more about outcomes than the core purpose of SMART design. While clear goals can reduce ambiguity and stress, SMART is primarily about goal clarity and tractability, not specifically stress avoidance as its defining benefit.
Option 2: 'uses fewer job characteristics.' The SMART framework emphasizes clear criteria for goals (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound) rather than reducing the number of job characteristics. This option misrepresents SMART by suggesting a structural simplification of job features rather than goal quality criteria.
Option 3: 'is simpler and more practical to use.' This aligns with common advantages attributed to SMART: it provides a straightforward, structured way to set well-defined goals, making planning and evaluation easier and more actionable. Its emphasis on concretely defined attributes tends to enhance practicality and usability.
Option 4: 'uses a more flexible approach.' In contrast, SMART is often described as deliberately specific and time-bound, which can reduce flexibility. While some adaptations exist, the classic SMART design tends to be less flexible and more explicit, not more flexible.
Putting these observations together, the statement about simplicity and practicality best captures the core benefit typically associated with SMART design, while the other options describe aspects that are not central or are mischaracterizations of SMART principles.
