Management by Objectives

Japanese: 目標による管理 - もくひょうによるかんり（英語表記）management by objectives

This is a concept or system where not only do we set goals for the entire organization and for each department, but also for each manager or person in charge of a job to set specific personal goals within the scope of their assigned work in order to achieve these overall and departmental goals, and then they carry out their work autonomously with a focus on achieving those goals. Also called management by objectives, it was born out of the practical needs of business management, and is said to have originated from Peter Ferdinand Drucker's (1909- ) idea of "management by goal setting and self-control."

Japanese:

組織全体の目標や各部門の目標を設定するだけでなく，これら全体目標や部門目標を達成するために個々の管理者や仕事の担当者が，各人が分担する仕事の範囲内で個人目標をみずから具体的に設定して，その目標達成を中心に自律的に仕事を遂行していくという考え方あるいは制度(しくみ)をいう。目標管理ともいい，経営管理の実際的な必要性から生まれたものであり，ドラッカーPeter Ferdinand Drucker(1909‐　)の〈目標(設定)と自己統制による管理〉の考え方に出発点があるといわれている。
