Posted by Anonymous on 12/14/2004 at 12:52 AM ET 250 Points

Which are more general, goals or objectives?
What is the accepted difference between the two?
In other words, assuming they are Not conceptually
the same thing, do the goals of an organization lead
to its objectives, OR do the objectives lead to the
goals?
Also, it is accepted that strategies lead to more
specific tactics. Following this line of reasoning,
what do tactics lead to? Is there an accepted term
for "sub tactics?"

    Strategies are broader than tactics, and tactics are used as steps to accomplish a strategy.

    Goal vs. objective - to me these are about the same thing.
