They serve as the basis for policy development and performance evaluation. Examples of business objectives include cost minimization, international expansion, or profit-making.
An example of a general objective is: "To make the student of information science capable of identifying the needs of users of a particular documentation system". A specific objective derived from this general objective is: "The student must be able to identify different types of documentary information networks". From these examples, it is clear that the specific objectives are usually derived from general objectives.
