Objectives and Their Formulation

Knut Samset

Chapter 12 in Early Project Appraisal, 2010, pp 113-129 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract An objective is a concrete expression of an intention. An intention becomes an objective when and only when something is done to realize it. An objective is a description of a future status sought or to be attained. Hence, an objective is tied to a particular point of time.
