MODULE «HOW TO SET GOALS AND ACHIEVE THEM» TOPIC 2. «SPECIFIC & MEASURABLE: GOAL MANAGEABILITY» Stage 5. Mini Case 1

Read the situation and answer the question by choosing one of the suggested options. Focus not on the general wording, but on the logic itself: whether the result can be understood from the description, verified, and used as a guide for action.

Mini case
«Everyone Understood It Differently»

Situation:

A team received a goal: «Create a good project by the end of the month». One participant focused on design, another on the amount of information, and a third on speed of execution. In the end, the project is completed, but the result does not satisfy the instructor.

Question: What is the key problem with this goal?

Choose the correct answer:

A. The participants did not try hard enough

B. The goal was interpreted differently due to lack of specificity

C. There was no control in the team

✅ Correct answer: B

Without a clear description of the result, each person interprets the goal in their own way. This leads to uncoordinated actions.
