The direct answer is A: “become good” cannot be measured clearly. A good objective should tell people exactly what result is expected and should allow progress to be checked. The phrase “become good” has no fixed standard. Different people may understand “good” in different ways, and there is no number, quality level, or test for deciding whether the organisation has achieved it. Therefore it is vague and weak as an objective. Option A is correct because the statement cannot be measured. Option B is wrong because the phrase is not too numerical; in fact, it contains no numerical measure at all. A numerical objective such as increasing sales by 10 percent is usually stronger. Option C is wrong because “become good” is not time bound. It does not say by when the improvement must happen. Option D is wrong because the phrase is not clear; it is general and unclear. A better objective would say something like achieving a specified quality score by a specified date. The exam cue is simple: words such as good, better, soon, or satisfactory need a clear measure and deadline before they become strong objectives.

The direct answer is A, when the objective is impossible and vague. An objective motivates employees when it gives a clear, meaningful and realistically reachable target. Employees need to know what is expected and must believe that effort can lead to success. If a target is impossible, people may feel that effort will never be enough. If it is vague, they cannot understand exactly what to do or how success will be measured. Option A is correct because impossibility removes hope of achievement and vagueness removes direction. Option B, a clear objective, is more motivating because employees understand the target. Option C, an achievable objective, encourages effort because success is realistically possible. Option D, a measurable objective, helps employees see progress and evaluate performance. A strong objective should normally be clear, specific, achievable and measurable, while still being challenging. Memory cue: a good goal should stretch people, not confuse them or make success impossible.
