  • Objectives of division were not clear enough to cascade to the next level (department/ section).

  • Low motivation/effort of Dept/Section Managers to set challenging objectives.

v Suggested solutions

§ Division managers/ BOD should define role, responsibility of dept/section.

§ Divisional Objectives must be set clearly and specifically enough for its cascading to next level.

§ Managers have to put effort to set objectives to meet VOC and superior expectation.

§ The qualitative objectives will be considered where quantitative objectives are not adapted.

§ If the objectives can not be approved within one month, it will be reported to MD for final solutions.

Objectives are not set on Voice Of Customer (VOC)
Some managers set objectives that look nice, but those objectives really did not contribute to the achievement of the company objectives or satisfy VOC at all.

v Suggested solutions
Div/ Department can raise the voice to the respective Div/Department. HR department will report to MD those VOC. MD will make final decision if those VOC should be considered/confirmed for setting objectives.

Evaluation

  •  It is agreed that objective achievement which is 150% higher must have report on taken actions and be certified by objective evidences or recipients (customers).
  •  It is dificult to evaluate objectives --> Certifying achievements of some objectives by recepients will be on request. E.g: survey of employee satisfaction on services provided by administration department (lunch, safety and hypogiency, trip,..).
  •  The discussion between superiors and subordinates on subordinate’s performance needs to be done. Some divisions have done it, some not yet --> HR department should report the status of implementation of this step to BOD.
  • There is no considerable problem, inconvenience in using current forms and MBO guideline.
