services for more customer satisfaction

Benchmarking

Benchmarking is basically standards-setting and


standard getting. The idea is to identify the best
practices in the organization and make the
benchmark for others to emulate. A benchmark
could be financial or non-financial, internal or
external in source. The benchmark to be set is the
best-in-the-class or the best performance in given
environment. The goal is always to be the winner.

Management by objectives (MBO)

Management by objectives managers establish first


the purposes and objectives of a firm, project, or
program before proceeding to planning, organizing,
directing, and controlling activities. The objectives
are established not only for the managers to define
and preach but more of the employees to know,
understand, get involves, and commit for its
attainment. The objectives are to make employees
more knowledgeable, responsible, achievement-
oriented, and self-motivated. This lays down a basic
principle of budgeting that creates participation,
involvement, commitment, and ownership leading
to an effective communication and coordination.
This makes managing predictable and more
scientific.

MBO also connects all plans and activities with the


established objectives of a firm, program, or a
project. Objectives are established through top-
down and bottom-up processes.
