quarterly goals
Three-month business aims
Quarterly goals are objectives set to be achieved within a three-month period, dividing the year into four planning cycles.
The timeframe balances long-term vision with short-term accountability—close enough to maintain urgency, far enough to accomplish meaningful work.
Common in business settings for tracking progress: We review quarterly goals at the end of each fiscal quarter.
The practice helps organizations break annual targets into manageable chunks.
