MBO offers several benefits. It leads to better management of resources, clarity in organizational action and more satisfied personnel. It encourages personal commitment, provides a basis for organizational change and leads to the development of effective controls. However, MBO has its drawbacks. It takes up too much time and money and can be inflexible.
Moreover, failure to teach the MBO philosophy and lack of proper guidance to goal-setters may lead to its unsuccessful implementation. In order to overcome these limitations and make MBO effective, the support of the top-level managers is essential. They must formulate clear objectives, encourage participation at all levels, and provide training to people who would be implementing the MBO program.
