November 15, 2024 at 8:14 am #713255Please do not simply type out a full question and expect to be provided with a full answer. You must have an answer in the same book in which you found the question, so ask about whatever it in the answer that you are not clear about and then I will explain 🙂
Have you watched my free lectures on CSF’s etc? The lectures are a complete free course for Paper MA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
November 16, 2024 at 3:29 pm #713274I have doubt on what basis do we differentiate between objectives and CSF.
The answer doesn’t have any explanation.
So I just wanted to know which of them are CSfs and the reason behind them selecting CSF.November 17, 2024 at 7:59 am #713282Again, have you watched my free lectures where I do explain the difference between objectives and CSF’s?
Increasing the return on capital employed is an objective – and overall aim of the business.
CSF’s are the fundamental requirements needed to achieve the objectives, so secure contracts with farmers is a CSF.
The answer may not give explanations but will obviously state which are CSF’s etc., so ask about any specific CSF’s stated in the answer that you do not understand and I will explain.
November 17, 2024 at 4:45 pm #713288Why establishing effective advertisement campaign is treated as CSF?
November 18, 2024 at 6:54 am #713314Because that is critical to them being able to achieve the overall objectives of the business.
