Abstract:
Management by objectives is a well-accepted technique and a logical, effective process of management, for the designing and achieving of goals, targets or objectives for the Department of School Guidance in a rapidly changing society.
To make the Department of School Guidance relevant at present or in the future, clear goals, targets or objectives should be set in terms of the department's:
Teaching task;
Research task; and
Community service task.
In achieving the above-mentioned short, medium and long term aims the following recognisable four-step process must form the basis:
Forecasting and target-setting;
Strategy and action planning;
Implementation;
Control, review and replanning;
