[Figure 12] 3 is a flowchart showing the flow of processing in the goal setting device 1. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0022] [Outline of Goal Setting System S] Figure 1 is a diagram for explaining an overview of the goal setting system S. The goal setting system S is a system for supporting members U belonging to an organization such as a company or a government office (hereinafter referred to as "company, etc.") in setting goals.

[0023] The goal setting system S includes a goal setting device 1, a member terminal 2, an administrator terminal 3, and an LLM 4. The goal setting device 1 is, for example, a computer that executes a process for setting goals for a member U, and is a server that can be accessed by multiple companies, etc. The goal setting device may be installed in the company, etc. to which the member U belongs.

[0024] The member terminal 2 is a computer used by the member U. The member terminal 2 is, for example, a personal computer, a tablet, or a smartphone. The member U inputs a personal goal plan into the member terminal 2. The member U can check the goals set by the goal setting device 1 based on the input personal goal plan on the member terminal 2.

[0025] The manager terminal 3 is a computer used by manager K who manages member U. The manager terminal 3 is, for example, a personal computer, a tablet, or a smartphone. Manager K sets team goals on the manager terminal 3. Manager K may also set his own proposed personal goals on the manager terminal 3. In other words, manager K may be member U, and manager terminal 3 may function as member terminal 2.

[0026] LLM4 is a large language model (LLM). LLM4 is a natural language processing model trained using a large amount of text data. When LLM4 receives input of text including a question, it outputs text indicating an answer to the received question. LLM4 may be included in a computer different from the goal setting device 1, or may be included in the goal setting device 1.

[0027] Meanwhile, different people have different goal setting styles. Some people prefer general goals, while others prefer goals that include specific task details. Furthermore, some people prefer goals that are difficult to achieve, while others prefer goals that have a high probability of being achieved. Therefore, the goal setting device 1 sets goals by taking into account the preferences of member U regarding goal setting styles.

[0028] The goal setting device 1 receives, from the member terminal 2, information indicating a goal setting style that suits the preferences of the member U (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "preference style") and a personal goal proposal that the member U has input to the member terminal 2, and transmits a corrected goal whose content has been modified based on the received personal goal proposal to the member terminal 2 in a format that conforms to the preference style. As will be described in detail later, the goal setting device 1 creates a corrected goal based on at least one of the team goal that the manager K inputs to the manager terminal 3, the member U's career goal, the member U's past performance, and the member U's grade. The past performance may be an objective numerical value or may be an evaluation rank by a superior.

[0029] To create a corrected goal, the goal setting device 1 may transmit to the LLM 4 text indicating the personal goal proposal received from the member U and additional information such as the team goal, the member U's career goal, the member U's past performance, and the member U's grade. The goal setting device 1 receives text indicating a goal (hereinafter referred to as a "generated goal") generated by the LLM 4 based on the transmitted text, and transmits a corrected goal obtained by editing the received generated goal based on the member's preferred style to the member terminal 2. This allows the member U to obtain a corrected goal that suits his or her preferred style simply by inputting a simple personal goal proposal into the member terminal 2.

[0030] 2 to 7 are diagrams showing examples of messages exchanged between the member U and the goal setting device 1 until the goal setting device 1 transmits the corrected target to the member terminal 2. Below, an overview of the processing flow in the goal setting system S will be described with reference to FIGS.

[0031] First, the goal setting device 1 executes a process of grasping the preference style of the member U. For example, in order to grasp the preference style of the member U, the goal setting device 1 transmits a question for identifying the preference style to the member terminal 2. The goal setting device 1 receives the member U's answer to the question and identifies the member U's preference style based on the received answer.

[0032] 2 is a diagram showing an example of a message transmitted and received by the goal setting device 1 to identify the preference style of the member U. In FIG. 2, "Device" corresponds to the goal setting device 1, and "You" corresponds to the member U.

[0033] The goal setting device 1 transmits messages for confirming, for example, the granularity of goal setting, the degree of emphasis on process and results, and the challenge orientation (M1). In response to this, in the example shown in Fig. 2, the member terminal 2 transmits messages indicating the option numbers 2, 1, and 4 as answers to the respective questions from member U (M2). Then, the goal setting device 1 transmits a message explaining the preferred style of member U identified based on the answers from member U (M3).

[0034] Next, the goal setting device 1 executes a process for identifying the career goal of the member U. The career goal is a personal goal that spans a longer period than the target period of the goal set by the member U. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of messages transmitted and received by the goal setting device 1 for identifying the career goal of the member U. The goal setting device 1 transmits a message for confirming the career goal (M4), and the member terminal 2 transmits a message including the member U's response (M5). The goal setting device 1 creates a corrected goal so as to satisfy at least a portion of the career goal of the member U identified in this manner.

[0035] Next, the goal setting device 1 executes a process for confirming the short-term goal of member U. The short-term goal is a goal corresponding to the period for which the goal setting device 1 creates a corrected goal. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a message transmitted and received by the goal setting device 1 to identify the short-term goal of member U. The goal setting device 1 transmits a message for confirming the short-term goal of member U (M6), and the member terminal 2 transmits a message indicating the proposed short-term goal (proposed individual goal) entered by member U (M7).

[0036] Next, the goal setting device 1 creates a corrected goal based on the confirmed short-term goal proposal of the member U, as well as additional information on at least one of the preference style of the member U, the career goal of the member U, the past goals and achievements of the member U, the grade (job title) of the member U, and the goal of the team to which the member U belongs. As shown in FIG. 1 , the goal setting device 1 creates the corrected goal based on the generated goal received from the LLM 4, for example, by transmitting the additional information together with the short-term goal proposal to the LLM 4 in order to create the corrected goal.

[0037] Fig. 5 is a diagram showing an example of a message for notifying the member U of the created corrected goal. As shown in the message (M8) in Fig. 5, the corrected goal includes at least a part of the personal goal proposal, and is in a form that matches the preferred style and takes into account the member U's past performance, grade, etc.

[0038] Next, if the created correction target does not satisfy a predetermined standard, the goal setting device 1 transmits a message to improve the created correction target. As an example, the goal setting device 1 scores the created correction target based on the goal evaluation standard of a company or the like, and if the scoring result is below the standard score, transmits a message to improve the correction target. For example, if some of the items indicated in the goal evaluation standard are not included in the correction target, the goal setting device 1 transmits a message to improve the correction target.

[0039] The goal setting device 1 executes a process of confirming the current issues and plans that the member U is considering, for example, as a process for clarifying the path to achieving the member U's career goal. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of messages sent and received by the goal setting device 1 to confirm the current issues and plans. The goal setting device 1 sends a message asking about the issues and plans (M9), and the member terminal 2 sends a message including the member U's answer (M10).

[0040] The goal setting device 1 creates an action plan by sending to the LLM 4 text including the content of the question (M9) sent to the member U and the content of the member U's answer (M10), and instructing the LLM 4 to create an action plan necessary to solve the member U's problem. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of a message indicating the action plan created by the goal setting device 1. As shown in FIG. 7, the goal setting device 1 sends a message in which the action plan sent from the LLM 4 is formatted to suit the preferred style of the member U as part of a corrected goal (M11). The goal setting device 1 may also send a message in which the created action plan is added to the corrected goal shown in FIG. 5 as an updated corrected goal.

[0041] As described above, the goal setting device 1 transmits and receives messages to and from the member U, obtains information necessary for creating a goal from the member U, and creates a revised goal by sending the obtained information and additional information to the LLM 4. This creates a revised goal that is more substantial than the goal written by the member U, thereby reducing the time required for the member U to set a goal. In particular, the goal setting device 1 generates a revised goal taking into account the member U's past performance, thereby increasing the probability that a goal will be set that will lead to the member U acquiring effective skills for achieving his or her career goal. Furthermore, improving the quality of the member U's goals reduces the time that the member U's manager spends reviewing the member U's goals, thereby improving the manager's work efficiency. The configuration and operation of the goal setting device 1 will be described in detail below.

[0042] [Configuration of target setting device 1] 8 is a diagram showing the configuration of the goal setting device 1. The goal setting device 1 has a communication unit 11, a storage unit 12, and a control unit 13. The control unit 13 has a preference identification unit 131, a data acquisition unit 132, a goal proposal acquisition unit 133, a goal creation unit 134, and an output unit 135.

[0043] The communication unit 11 includes a communication interface for transmitting and receiving data between the member terminal 2, the manager terminal 3, and the LLM 4. The communication unit 11 notifies the preference specification unit 131 of the member U's preferred style included in a message from the member U received from the member terminal 2, and notifies the goal proposal acquisition unit 133 of the member U's goal proposal. The communication unit 11 acquires the team goal from the manager terminal 3 and acquires the member U's past goals and achievements from other computers, and notifies the data acquisition unit 132 of the acquired information. The communication unit 11 sends a message indicating the corrected goal created by the goal creation unit 134 to the member terminal 2.

[0044] The storage unit 12 has storage media such as a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), and an SSD (Solid State Drive). The storage unit 12 stores programs executed by the control unit 13. The storage unit 12 also stores various data used by the control unit 13 to create correction targets. The storage unit 12 stores, for example, team target data, member data, and task content data.

[0045] FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of member data. In the member data, member names, grades, and past (previous period) performance are associated. While FIG. 9 shows only performance for the previous period, member data may also include performance for multiple past periods. Grades are classified into S, A, B, C, and D, for example, in descending order of skill or required results.

[0046] 10 is a diagram showing an example of team goal data. The team goal data is created based on data received by the communication unit 11 from the manager terminal 3, and associates multiple team goals with the names of members in charge of tasks to achieve each team goal and the progress status of each team goal. The team goal data is referenced by the goal creation unit 134 to create a corrected goal for member U that matches the team goal.

[0047] Fig. 11 is a diagram showing an example of job content data. In the job content data, the content of the job, the skills required to perform the job, and a rank indicating the difficulty of the job are associated with each other. In the example shown in Fig. 11, the higher the rank value, the more difficult the job.

[0048] Hereinafter, the operation of each part of the control unit 13 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. The preference identification unit 131 identifies the preference of the member U regarding the type of goal set by the member U. For example, the preference identification unit 131 transmits a question such as that shown in message M1 in Fig. 2 to the member terminal 2, and identifies the preference style of the member U based on the answer of the member U received from the member terminal 2. As shown in message M1 in Fig. 2, the preference style is determined based on at least one of the granularity of the goal, the points emphasized in achieving the goal, and the degree of challenge.

[0049] The data acquisition unit 132 acquires various data from the member terminal 2, the manager terminal 3, other devices, or the storage unit 12. The data acquisition unit 132 acquires, for example, performance data indicating the past performance of a member U of the organization for which a goal is to be set. The data acquisition unit 132 may acquire multiple performance data indicating the past performance of each of multiple members U in charge of work corresponding to the proposed team goal of the team to which the member U belongs.

[0050] The data acquisition unit 132 may acquire performance data by sending a message to the member terminal 2 or the manager terminal 3 to confirm the past performance of the member U, or may acquire performance data by referencing member data stored in the memory unit 12 in association with the member U. The performance data may include the member U's goals for the past period in addition to the member U's performance, and may also include data indicating the relationship between the goals and the performance. The data indicating the relationship between the goals and the performance is, for example, data indicating the achievement rate of the goals. When the data acquisition unit 132 acquires performance data from the member terminal 2 or the manager terminal 3, it stores the acquired performance data in the memory unit 12 in association with the member U.

[0051] The goal proposal acquisition unit 133 acquires an individual goal proposal from the member U. The goal proposal acquisition unit 133 may acquire a goal proposal of the team to which the member U belongs from the manager K. The goal proposal acquisition unit 133 may send a message to the member terminal 2 to confirm the individual goal proposal, such as message M6 in FIG. 4, and acquire the individual goal proposal included in the answer of the member U received from the member terminal 2. Similarly, the goal proposal acquisition unit 133 may send a message to the manager terminal 3 to confirm the team goal proposal and acquire the team goal proposal included in the answer of the manager K received from the manager terminal 3.

[0052] The goal proposal acquisition unit 133 associates the acquired individual goal proposal and team goal proposal with the member U and stores them in the storage unit 12. The goal proposal acquisition unit 133 may also store the team goal proposal in the storage unit 12 in association with a team ID for identifying the team.

[0053] The goal creation unit 134 creates a goal for the member U. The goal creation unit 134 creates a corrected goal by correcting the proposed personal goal created by the member U, for example, based on past performance indicated by the performance data. As an example, the goal creation unit 134 creates a corrected goal based on a generated goal received from the LLM 4 after sending text indicating the proposed personal goal and text indicating past performance to the LLM 4. Specifically, the goal creation unit 134 creates a corrected goal that is higher than the past performance and closest to the proposed personal goal by sending an instruction to the LLM 4 to set a goal higher than the past performance.

[0054] Incidentally, there may be members U who tend to set goals that are too high for their abilities, or who tend to set goals that are too low for their abilities. Therefore, in order to create a goal that matches the abilities of member U, the goal creation unit 134 may create a corrected goal by correcting the proposed personal goal based further on the relationship between member U's past goals and achievements indicated by the achievement data. The higher the achievements for the past goals, the higher the corrected goal created by member U is. When the proposed personal goal, past goals, and past achievements include numerical values, the goal creation unit 134 creates a corrected goal based on, for example, the value indicated by the proposed personal goal multiplied by the ratio of the numerical value indicated by the past achievements to the numerical value indicated by the past goal.

[0055] 9, the number of units sold of product X indicated in the personal goal proposal previously submitted by Mr. Sato is 16, the actual sales figures are 20, and the personal goal proposal of member U acquired by the goal proposal acquisition unit 133 is 18, the goal creation unit 134 rounds up 18 units x 1.25 = 22.5 to 23 units, and sets the corrected target as this. This allows the goal creation unit 134 to create a corrected target that is not too low compared to the personal goal proposal created by member U, which is estimated based on member U's past performance.

[0056] The goal creation unit 134 may create a first corrected goal including a value obtained by multiplying the numerical value indicated by the proposed individual goal by the ratio of the numerical value indicated by the past performance to the numerical value indicated by the past target, and a second corrected goal including a numerical value larger than the first corrected goal. For example, if the first goal based on the ratio of the past performance to the past target is 23 as in the above example, the second corrected goal is set to 25, which is higher than the first target. This allows the goal creation unit 134 to create a corrected goal that member U has a possibility of achieving and that allows member U to aim for better performance than in the past. Note that the goal creation unit 134 may further create a third corrected goal including a numerical value smaller than the first corrected goal.

[0057] In order to create a corrected goal that takes into consideration the relationship between the goals and achievements of past member U in this way, the goal creation unit 134 may create a corrected goal based on the generated goal received from the LLM 4 after transmitting to the LLM 4 text indicating the proposed individual goal and text indicating the relationship between the goals and achievements of past member U. Using the LLM 4 in this way is suitable when the relationship between the goals and achievements of past member U cannot be expressed numerically.

[0058] As an example, suppose that member U's past goal was "create a proposal for a client" and member U's past performance was "created a proposal for a client and presented it," and although the relationship between the goal and performance cannot be expressed numerically, member U achieved a performance that was better than the goal. Even in such a case, the LLM 4 searches for a task that corresponds to a goal that is slightly more difficult than member U's proposed personal goal, and the goal creation unit 134 can create a corrected goal that takes into account the growth that can be expected from member U.

[0059] The goal creation unit 134 may transmit to the LLM 4 the target numerical value that is the target to be achieved in the work indicated in the individual goal proposal of the member U, the performance numerical value that the member U has previously achieved in the work indicated by the performance data, and instruction text that instructs the LLM 4 to correct the target numerical value to an appropriate value taking into account the performance numerical value. In this way, when the target numerical value is an unrealizable value that deviates too much from the performance numerical value, the goal creation unit 134 can create a corrected target that includes the appropriate numerical value indicated in the generated target received from the LLM 4.

[0060] The goal creation unit 134 may refer to the task content data and the performance data to identify the skills of a member U who previously performed the task indicated by the performance data, and create a corrected goal so that the task content data includes tasks associated with skills higher than the identified skills. The goal creation unit 134 may, for example, send text indicating the identified skills of member U to the LLM 4, and instruct the LLM 4 to create a goal that can be achieved with the sent skills.

[0061] The goal creation unit 134 may instruct the LLM 4 to create multiple goals, each with a different probability of achievement using the transmitted skill. The goal creation unit 134 may send to the LLM 4 text indicating a skill one level higher than the current skill of member U, along with the current skill, and instruct the LLM 4 to create multiple goals corresponding to each skill. In this way, the goal creation unit 134 can create a corrected goal that includes multiple goals with different achievement probabilities, as shown by message M8 in FIG. 5.

[0062] As described in the "Achievement Conditions" in message M8 in Fig. 5, the goal creation unit 134 may create a corrected goal associated with each of the multiple goals, the corrected goal including information indicating an evaluation rank if the goal is achieved. By creating such a corrected goal by the goal creation unit 134, the member U is motivated to achieve a higher goal.

[0063] The goal creation unit 134 may create a corrected goal based on the individual goal proposals of the multiple members U, the past performance of the multiple members U, and the team goal proposal of the team to which the multiple members U belong. As an example, assume that a team goal proposal of "increase the number of sales of product X to 80" shown in Fig. 10 is set, and the members in charge are Mr. Tanaka, Mr. Sato, and Mr. Suzuki.

[0064] According to the member data in Figure 9, the total number of product X sold by the three members in the previous period was 60. In this case, the goal creation unit 134 calculates the ratio of the performance results of the three members U in the previous period, multiplies the proposed team goal by the calculated ratio, and rounds up to the nearest whole number, thereby setting Mr. Tanaka's target at 40 units, Mr. Sato's target at 27 units, and Mr. Suzuki's target at 14 units. In this way, the goal creation unit 134 can create corrected goals that match the capabilities of the multiple members U in charge of the work and that lead to the achievement of the team goal.

[0065] Here, it is undesirable for there to be a member U whose proposed individual goal and corrected goal differ too greatly. Therefore, the goal creation unit 134 may further correct the corrected goal of the member U whose proposed individual goal differs the most from the corrected goal among multiple members U in charge of tasks corresponding to one team goal, so as to reduce the difference. For example, as shown in FIG. 10 , assume that Mr. Tanaka will also be in charge of selling product Y, which he was not previously responsible for, and his proposed individual goal for product X is 25 units, which is less than the past performance. In this case, if Mr. Tanaka's goal is 40 units, it is considered that the number of targets is too large for the proposed individual goal. Therefore, the goal creation unit 134 reduces Mr. Tanaka's corrected goal to 35 units.

[0066] However, such corrections may result in failure to achieve the team goal. As in the above example, if Mr. Tanaka's corrected goals become 35, the other members U in charge of the same work, Mr. Sato's 27 corrected goals and Mr. Suzuki's 14 corrected goals, totaling 76, which is four less than the team goal of 80. Therefore, the goal creation unit 134 allocates the missing four goals to Mr. Sato and Mr. Suzuki, making Mr. Sato's corrected goals 30 and Mr. Suzuki's corrected goals 15. By further correcting the corrected goals of the other members U in this way, it is possible to set goals for each member U so that the team goal can be achieved while preventing a large difference between the individual goal proposals and the corrected goals.

[0067] The goal creation unit 134 may create a corrected goal based on the generated goal received from the LLM 4 after transmitting text indicating the individual goal proposal and text indicating the team goal proposal to the LLM 4. Specifically, the goal creation unit 134 transmits to the LLM 4 text indicating the individual goal proposal and text indicating the team goal proposal, as well as text instructing the LLM 4 to revise the individual goal proposal in consideration of the team goal proposal. In this way, the goal creation unit 134 can create a corrected goal that matches the team goal by receiving from the LLM 4 a generated goal in which, for example, an individual goal corresponding to the content indicated by the team goal proposal has been added or the individual goal proposal has been revised.

[0068] The goal creation unit 134 may transmit the proposed individual goals of each of the multiple members U in charge of work corresponding to the team goal, along with the proposed team goal, to the LLM 4. This allows the LLM 4 to revise the proposed individual goals of each of the multiple members U in consideration of the proposed team goal. By correcting the proposed individual goals of the multiple members U corresponding to the team goal based on the team goal, the goal creation unit 134 can create corrected goals for the multiple members U that will increase the probability of achieving the team goal.

[0069] The goal creation unit 134 may create a corrected goal by correcting the proposed personal goal based on the preference style of the member U acquired by the preference identification unit 131. For example, if the preference style of the member U is a style that prefers challenges, the goal creation unit 134 refers to the task content data shown in Fig. 11 and corrects the proposed personal goal to include task content with a higher rank than the rank corresponding to the proposed personal goal. If the member U prefers a style in which details are worked out as the work progresses rather than just setting big goals, the goal creation unit 134 creates a corrected goal that includes a monthly goal calculated by dividing a value corresponding to the annual goal indicated in the proposed personal goal (e.g., the number of sales) by the number of months.

[0070] The goal creation unit 134 may transmit the preference style of the member U acquired by the preference identification unit 131 to the LLM 4 together with the member U's proposed personal goal, and instruct the LLM 4 to create a goal modified in a format that matches the preference style. This allows the goal creation unit 134 to easily create a corrected goal that matches the member U's preference style.

[0071] The output unit 135 outputs a set target based on the corrected target created by the target creating unit 134. The output unit 135 outputs a set target in which the form of the corrected target has been modified based on the preference style of the member U identified by the preference identifying unit 131, for example.

[0072] The output unit 135 may further output an action plan for achieving the corrected goal. The output unit 135 may further output an action plan received from the LLM 4 after requesting an action plan for achieving the corrected goal from the LLM 4. For example, the output unit 135 refers to the task content data in FIG. 11 , identifies the skills required to perform the task corresponding to the corrected goal, and queries the LLM 4 for an action plan required to acquire the skills.

[0073] [Processing flow in the target setting device 1] Fig. 12 is a flowchart showing the flow of processing in the goal setting device 1. The flowchart shown in Fig. 12 starts, for example, from the point when the member U performs an operation on the member terminal 2 to start setting a goal.

[0074] The data acquisition unit 132 acquires performance data of the member U (S11), and the goal proposal acquisition unit 133 acquires the team goal of the team to which the member U belongs from the manager terminal 3 (S12). Subsequently, the preference identification unit 131 identifies the preference style of the member U by sending the member U a question for identifying the preference style of the member U (S13). The control unit 13 may execute S11, S12, and S13 in any order.

[0075] Next, the goal proposal acquisition unit 133 acquires the individual goal proposal of member U (S14). The goal creation unit 134 transmits additional information such as performance data, team goals, and preferred styles along with the individual goal proposal acquired by the goal proposal acquisition unit 133 to the LLM 4 (S15). The goal creation unit 134 receives the generated goals generated by the LLM 4 (S16) and creates corrected goals based on the received goals (S17). The goal creation unit 134 creates the corrected goals, for example, by changing the format of the generated goals received from the LLM 4 to a format corresponding to a predetermined template stored in the memory unit 12. The output unit 135 outputs the corrected goals by transmitting the corrected goals to the member terminal 2 via the communication unit 11 (S18).

[0076] [Variations] In the above explanation, the case has been described in which the goal creation unit 134 creates a corrected goal based on the past performance of the member U, but the goal creation unit 134 does not have to use the past performance of the member U. For example, when the goal of a team made up of multiple members U has been determined and it is necessary to solve the problem of appropriately setting a goal for each member U belonging to the team, the goal creation unit 134 may create a corrected goal by allocating a numerical value corresponding to the team goal based on at least one of the grade and possessed skill of each of the multiple members U, without using the past performance of the member U.

[0077] In this case, the goal creation unit 134 may create a corrected goal based on the generated goal for each of the multiple members U received from the LLM4 by sending the team goal and at least one of the grades and possessed skills of each of the multiple members U to the LLM4.

[0078] Furthermore, when it is necessary to solve the problem of enabling member U to easily set a goal that matches his / her preference style, the goal creation unit 134 may create a corrected goal by correcting the personal goal proposal acquired from member U by the goal proposal acquisition unit 133 based on the preference style acquired from member U by the preference identification unit 131, without using the past performance of member U. In this case, the goal creation unit 134 may create a corrected goal based on the generated goals of each of the multiple members U received from the LLM4 by transmitting the personal goal proposal and the preference style to the LLM4.

[0079] In the above explanation, the example has been given in which the goal setting device 1 has the preference specifying unit 131 and outputs a corrected target that matches the preference style of the member U, but the goal setting device 1 does not have to have the preference specifying unit 131. In this case, the goal setting device 1 creates a corrected target without taking the preference style of the member U into consideration.

[0080] [Effects of Goal Setting Device 1] As described above, the goal setting device 1 acquires the proposed personal goal created by the member U, creates a corrected goal with more substantial content than the proposed personal goal based on at least one of the member U's past achievements, the relationship between the member U's past goals and achievements, the member U's preference style, and the goals of the team to which the member U belongs, and provides the created corrected goal to the member U. This allows the member U to reduce the time it takes to set a goal that suits his or her own intentions. Furthermore, improving the quality of the member U's goals reduces the time that the member U's manager spends reviewing the member U's goals, improving the manager's work efficiency.
