This is the most pronounced & contraversial dilema in organisations today- meeting "unrealistic targets". Yes it is true that some managers & superiors expect their employees to sometimes achieve the "unachievable" which may seem to be truly unfair to employees & surbordinates. Some managers & superiors may put such targets as way to to see deligence in work, to check the attitudes of employees towards their policies, to keep away employees from redudancy or to motivate them to achieve more WHILE other managers or superiors may just want to exploit employees, to show their authority or superiority, to trap employees & terminate them if they fail. However; giving it a "short" wouldn't be bad especially that managers & superiors want "positive attitudes & zeal" from employees, therefore you can agree to the targets with a positive attitude & then work deligently towards achieving the "unachievable". It is modest for managers & superiors to appreciate the efforts of their employees & surbordinates due to the time & effort they put in work even though they failed to achieve the targets. Thanx for the invitation
