I support Mrs Celeste's answer

Thanks for invitation,
I do believe that our colleague, " Celeste Ann" has already covered the subject by her answer.
On strategic planning wherein we draw our main objectives from the mission, vision and values of the company. From there we create the structure of the balanced scorecard where we draw our performance evaluation sheets between the performer and the evaluator. MBO can only be successful if all of these 3 are present: target, measures and REWARD system (financial or an added value).
