Years ago, in search of my first career job as a biologist, I interviewed with a private firm in Portland. The interviewer me asked a hypothetical question about how I would help to manage a piece of ground, and my reply was a simple question: âWhat are your objectives?â
At that point he nodded, smiled slightly, and made a note. I felt that this was an impressive start to my interview and, while I didnât get the job, I did learn an important lesson: Good management starts with good objectives.
