Objectives must be quantified in order to be useful.

Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)


False

To develop a strategy for reaching its objectives, a company must quantify them. But despite most top managers' preference for verifiable objectives, they frequently do have nonquantifiable or directional goals. Incidentally, objectives do tend to be more quantified as they progress down the organization to the operational level, because, for the most part, strategies at one level become the objectives for the succeeding level.
