The most popular approach to increase goal commitment is to:
a) ask the top management to assign goals.
b) minimize employee involvement in planning.
c) encourage employee participation while setting goals.
d) develop less challenging goals.

C encourage employee participation while setting goals.

Explanation:

Goals are ideas in which an individual or group of people or organization aim to achieve within a stipulated time.

While top managements of organizations are saddled with the responsibility of setting goals and cascaded to lower managers and subsequently junior employees, it is now essential that employees are encouraged to participate in these goal settings.

By involving employees in goal settings, there would be increase in goals commitment thereby leading to dedication amongst employees and subsequently results to attainment of such goals.
