Can you provide examples of how the MBO method aligns individual goals with broader organizational objectives?

The MBO (Management by Objectives) method aligns individual goals with broader organizational objectives by setting clear, specific goals that are in line with the company's strategic objectives. This is done through a collaborative process between managers and employees. For example, if a company's strategic objective is to increase market share, an individual's goal could be to increase sales in their region by a certain percentage. Regular progress reviews are conducted to monitor achievement and make necessary adjustments. This process ensures that employees understand their targets and how they contribute to the broader organizational goals. It also enhances accountability and motivation as employees have a clear understanding of their roles and a direct stake in the company's success.
