Answer 1

Answer:

Goal conflict

Explanation:

Goal conflict is a business term usually referring to either strategy or data plans that are made but can not be achieved successfully due to inherent discrepancies and goal-to-goal issues.

Many goals are autonomous and have no effect on each other at all, but many goals are interdependent and rely on the same resources, structures or employees to achieve.

If many goals collide, there may be a clash of goals and job productivity may be reduced.
