520 _aGoals are almost universally accepted as the central elements for directing the performance outcomes of individuals. Individuals set goals and strive to achieve them. They do not always succeed in attaining set goals. To set achievable and realistic goals, it is extremely important for individuals to understand their strengths and carve out their goals accordingly. With this understanding, the present paper aims to understand the role of knowledge of strength in performance expectation and outcome, ie, whether goal setting moderates the role of knowledge of strength in impacting performance outcome. For the purpose of the study, data was collected from 350 academics from management institutes across India, for whom goal setting happens as a formal procedure in areas of teaching, research, institution building, and administrative responsibilities. Two Step Hierarchical structural equation modeling was conducted to examine the research questions and hypotheses of the study. The study found that knowledge of one's own strengths impacts performance outcome, and strength visibility and strength use have significant relationships with performance outcome;. In contrast, strength insight was not found to have a significant relationship. Goal autonomy, commitment, and difficulty have been found to positively impact performance outcomes. The model shows a good fit.- Reproduced
