Correct Answer: Measurable and specific goals


Solution : The correct answer is (c) Measurable and specific goals

Effective planning involves setting clear, measurable, and specific goals. This clarity helps in providing direction, facilitating the allocation of resources, and enabling the assessment of progress. Ambiguous and vague objectives can lead to confusion and make it difficult to determine whether the goals have been achieved. Lack of alignment with organizational goals can result in efforts being directed away from the overall mission and vision of the organization. Additionally, effective planning often includes flexibility in decision-making to adapt to changing circumstances and unforeseen challenges. However, the emphasis on measurable and specific goals is crucial for successful planning and implementation.
