Goal templates — Manager
Project Management (Corporate & Business Services) – Professional Series · General · P4 — Senior Professional
These are canon-derived frames, not advice: every line is either verbatim JobFrame canon text or a fixed template wrapping it. ⟨target⟩ / ⟨baseline⟩ / ⟨date⟩ are placeholders for the manager to fill in. Nothing here is generated by AI — rows are omitted, never invented, when the canon lacks the underlying field.
MBO areas

Scorecard
Only perspectives with real canon backing are shown — no Financial or Customer perspective, since nothing in the canon grounds business-financial or customer measures for a role alone.
