3. Setting subordinates‘ objectives 
The achievement of organizational goals is only possible through individuals. So each individual manager must know in advance what he is expected to attain. Every manager in the managerial hierarchy is both superior and subordinate (except the managers at top and bottom level). The process of objective setting begins with superior‘s proposed recommendations for his subordinate‘s objectives. In turn, the su8bordinate state his own objectives as perceived by him. Thereafter the final objectives for the subordinates are set by the mutual negotiation between superiors and subordinates.

Though appraisal is the last aspect of MBO process, it is used as an input for recycling objectives and other actions. Recycling process include setting of objectives at various levels, action planning on the basis of those objectives and performance review. Each of these three aspects gives base for others.
