Why is management by objectives (MBO)considered a valuable intervention?
On Jun 10, 2024
Answers will vary. MBO is a valuable intervention because it meets three needs. First, it clarifies what is expected of employees. This reduces role conflict and ambiguity. Second, MBO provides knowledge of results, an essential ingredient in effective job performance. Finally, MBO provides an opportunity for coaching and counseling by the manager. The problem-solving approach encourages open communication and discussion of obstacles to goal achievement. Please see the section "Group-Focused Techniques for OD Intervention" for more information.
