Setting goals and objectives is one of the main roles of managers. Without clear goals and objectives to attain, an organization would be lost at sea without any kind of direction to follow. Without goals and objectives, it would be impossible for managers to do their jobs as they could not assign resources or organize them to accomplish specific tasks.
The overall purpose of this learning pathway is to learn the importance of defining objectives. Your goal is to:
- Learn the techniques used by managers to set goals and objectives.
- Learn how managers use these to plan ahead.
- Recognize the difference between goals, objectives, and measures
