Task: Paul Mali (Management by Objective, New York: John Wiley, 1972, p. 12) DEFINES mbo AS A FIVE-STEP PROCESS:
- Finding the objective
- Setting the objective
- Validating the objective
- Implementing the objective
- Controlling and reporting status of the objective.
How can the work breakdown structure be used to accomplish each of the above steps? Would you agree or disagree that the more levels the WBS contains, the greater the understanding and clarity of those steps necessary to complete the objective?
