Summarizing "Not Your Founding Fathers' MBO's":
Original management by objective techniques are out of date; they miss the mark on many fronts; entrenched, manipulated, a longer time frame than business allows.
So instead use these Living Breathing Bible techniques: Create concept type priorities, those with some wishful thinking but which also that clearly represent the changes required for your organization or survive and then prosper.
Lace each with as many specifics are you imagination can create, using both knowledge and intuition to create them.
Go through the difficult process of stack ranking each priority, make your management team recognize that the initiatives or investments outlined in item #4, for example, will not be funded until the specifics in item #2 are achieved.
Learn more about your organization and gain fresh thinking by assigning the priorities to others than the obvious functionaries.
Learn more about your business by thrashing through many mid-course learning-based corrections to your initial specifics.
Learn more about your progress by reassessing the specifics and prioritization as new information develops on your path to excellent performance. Learn, learn, learn.....
