A performance goal is a target level of performance expressed as a tangible, measurable objective, against which actual achievement can be compared, including a goal expressed as a quantitative standard, value, or rate. Performance goals should be provided for short-term as well as for long-term assessment of program performance.
The term is most often used in business or economics, but can also be used in setting personal targets.
