Establishing Goals and
Developing Plans
• Traditional Goal Setting
Broad goals are set at the top of the organization.
Goals are then broken into subgoals for each
organizational level.
Assumes that top management knows best because
they can see the “big picture.”
Goals are intended to direct, guide, and constrain
from above.
Goals lose clarity and focus as lower-level managers
attempt to interpret and define the goals for their
areas of responsibility.
