using MBO for implementation plans Zhirkova Sargylana IFF 2 -3
Management by Objectives (MBO) is a process in which a manager and an employee agree upon a set of specific performance goals, or objectives, and jointly develop a plan for reaching them. The objectives must be clear and achievable, and the plan must include a time frame and evaluation criteria.
IMPLEMENTING AN MBO PROGRAM To be successful, an MBO program should be part of a small business's overall system of planning and goal setting. The first step in implementing MBO is to establish long-range company goals in such areas as sales, competitive positioning, human resource development, etc. A small business owner may find it helpful to begin by defining the company's current business and looking for emerging customer needs or market trends that may require adaptation. Such longrange planning provides a framework for charting the company's future staffing levels, marketing approaches, financing needs, product development focus, and facility and equipment usage.
Formulating goals is not an easy task for employees, and most people do not master it immediately. Small business owners may find it helpful to begin the process by asking employees and managers to define their jobs and list their major responsibilities. Then the employees and managers can create a goal or goals based upon each responsibility and decide how to measure their own performance in terms of results. In the Small Business Administration publication Planning and Goal Setting for Small Business, Raymond F. Pelissier recommended having employees create a miniature work plan for each goal. A work plan would include the goal itself, the measurement terms, any major problems anticipated in meeting the goal, a series of work steps toward meeting the goal (with completion dates), and the company goal to which the personal goal relates.
Another requirement for any successful MBO program is that it provide for a regular review of employee progress toward meeting goals. This review can take place either monthly or quarterly. When the review uncovers employee performance that is below expectations, managers should try to identify the problem, assign responsibility for correcting it, and make a note in the MBO files.
