Management by Objectives (MBO) Consulting

Drive Focus. Align Teams. Achieve Measurable Results.

At Solomon People Solutions, we use Management by Objectives (MBO), a tried-and-true approach that synchronises employee performance with corporate objectives, to assist organisations in turning their strategic intent into measurable results.

Teams at all levels are empowered by MBO to comprehend expectations, the significance of these, and the metrics used to quantify achievement. It’s about achieving your goals, not just setting them.

What is Management by Objectives?

In the Management by Objectives performance management strategy, managers and staff work together to establish specific, quantifiable goals that complement organisational priorities. The concept is straightforward: people perform better when they are aware of their goals and the reasons behind them.

MBO contributes to the development of an accountable, ownership-based, and continuous improvement culture through frequent reviews and feedback.
