Successful organizations need clear, ambitious and achievable objectives to ensure they are on the right track. Ambition is necessary to push the organization to be the best it can be, but if objectives are too ambitious and unachievable, the organization is set up to fail. On the other hand, if objectives are achievable and clear, but unambitious, the organization will likely be an average performer.
