Organization Objectives
Objectives are measurable ends for a set process. We identify goals and take action to make them happen. Organizational objectives help in setting goals in a way that all company-wide activities lead to one single direction. “It is the future results that an organization wants to achieve.” Simply having a plan doesn’t work. We also need to measure continuously and take actions wherever required.
