In the development of action plans, objectives must be established that will accomplish the overall strategic goals of the organization. Describe several characteristics that objectives must possess. Why do we refer to these as short-term goals? Also, include in your answer to why communication is important in the effective implementation of action plans across the entire organization
Ans. Several characteristics that the objectives must possess are :
1. Specific
2. Measurable
3. Achievable
4. Relevant to the mission
5. Time bound
6. Challenging.
We refer to these as short term goals because the goals achieved in short run would eventually lead to the completion of long term goals. In order to achieve the longer objective , short term goals need to be there so that we can check our performance frequently.
Communication is also very important in effective implementation of action plans across the entire organisation because if the desired plans are not communicated well to the staff , the results would also be not upto the mark. We need to clearly communicate to the staff about our expectations and the goals so that everything becomes clear and hassle free. Efficiency is always improved when communication is improved.
