RE: [MTC Global] Goals & Objectives

As I look at it goals are visible reachable destination for which there can be different strategies. One goal may be targeted to achieve different objectives or there may be different goals to achieve one objective.

Dear All,

Goals and objectives both can be short term as well as long term.

The real difference between the two is-

Goals are a general statement of purpose- e.g. I want to lose weight.

Objectives are quantifiable goals - e.g. I want to lose weight by 5 kgs by 31st Dec2014.

Goals become objectives when it is quantified.

Goals are short term objectives ; and objectives are long term goals.

the litmus test of an Objective: are you able to feel it by your senses at any time? if yes, it is not an objective , but a goal.

in the gven example, reaching any intermittant station is a goal. well taken. but when one define an Objective, it is an abstract target, not a concrete one. to be the most preferred employer is an objective. to recruit and maintain good faculty members is a goal in the achievement of the target.

Objective is a statement indicating what one has decided to achieve. Goal is a milestone that shows how near/far are you from your objective set.

For instance, I want to reach to Mumbai from Aurangabad. There are three main routes by car:

1. Aurangabad-Nashik-Igatpuri-Kalyan-Mumbai

2. Aurangabad-Ale Phata-Kalyan-Mumbai

3. Aurangabad-Pune-Lonwala-Navi Mumabi-Mumbai.

Suppose I take option one. When I reach to Nashik, the first goal of my destination half way through is achieved. Next mile stone is Igatpuri, followed by Kalyan and then Mumbai. Thus, goal represents how near or how far I am from the objective set.

Objective based learning or outcome based learning is another example. To achieve a certain skill say operating a lathe is the outcome of Workshop Practice. The first goal is simple turning, then threading then tapering, then preparing a sphere.

Subject: [MTC Global] Goals & Objectives

Dear Colleagues

Food for thought. What is the universally acceptable difference between a Goal & an Objective?

Although Management, in its various facets, forms & fundas, has a history of over 2 centuries ,
some confusion still prevails on Goals & Objectives for a Manager.

Goals have a time frame & Objectives are aligned in the fulfilment of Goals. Losing 5 kgs in next 1 month is a goal - task & time frame. Objectives are series of things one does to lose weight, like diet, walking, yoga, attitude, etc. Some more clarity is needed as many Managers use Goals & Objectives, interchangeably

Few Management teachers & educators also get confused here.

Members can opine, with less of theory & more examples.

regards

Ramesh Vemuganti
