Answer to Question 1

MBO stands for management by objectives. MBO is a program in which objectives are mutually set between the employee and supervisor. The employee is held accountable for the accomplishment of those objectives at various intervals which are normally part of an annual performance appraisal. They combine planning and control.

The key steps of a typical MBO cycle begin with establishing mutually agreed objectives between employee and supervisor. In step two, the action plan is developed to accomplish objectives. Then progress is monitored toward achievement of the objectives (on an ongoing basis) and finally, the extent to which objectives were met or exceeded is formally evaluated.
