目標管理
在GMAT邏輯的考試中，大部分題目都屬于常見的條件推理（又稱歸納演繹推理）方式，即通過一些條件推理得出結(jié)論。但是除了條件推理以外，邏輯里面有時也會考到其他的一些推理模型，今天我們就來看一下目標管理的情況。
一、目標管理的含義
邏輯題目里經(jīng)常會有涉及到一個plan/proposal能否成功達成想要的目標的情況，這類題目我們就認為是目標管理的題目。
既然提出了一個計劃或是方案，一定是為了達到一些目標，所以涉及到計劃方案的題目，這個計劃和方案究竟能否達成目標就是最重要的了。因此目標管理的題目里面，我們首要關注的就是目標是什么，其次還要看一下為了達成目標實施的行為是什么；另外有些題目還會給一些信息告訴我們行為之所以能達成目標的途徑，有的話寫在目標和行為之間就可以了。目標管理形成的邏輯鏈如下：
行為---（途徑）---目標
二、例題
Outsourcing is the practice of obtaining from an independent supplier a product or service that a company has previously provided for itself. Vernon, Inc., a small manufacturing company that has in recent years experienced a decline in its profits, plans to boost its profits by outsourcing those parts of its business that independent suppliers can provide at lower cost than Vernon can itself.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the prediction that Vernon's plan will achieve its goal?
(A)Among the parts of its business that Vernon does not plan to outsource are some that require standards of accuracy too high for most independent suppliers to provide at lower cost than Vernon can.
(B)Vernon itself acts as an independent supplier of specialized hardware items to certain manufacturers that formerly made those items themselves.
(C)Relatively few manufacturers that start as independent suppliers have been able to expand their business and become direct competitors of the companies they once supplied.
(D)Vernon plans to select the independent suppliers it will use on the basis of submitted bids.
(E)Attending to certain tasks that Vernon performs relatively inefficiently has taken up much of the time and effort of top managers whose time would have been better spent attending to Vernon's core business.
這里先看一下問題，要support Vernon’s plan，提到了plan就是個目標管理的題目了，所以這是一道目標管理下的增強題。
分析原文：外包是指從獨立的供應商那里獲得公司之前自己提供的產(chǎn)品或服務。V公司是一家小型制造公司，近年利潤下降，計劃：通過外包供應商能提供更廉價的部分增長利潤。
邏輯鏈：（行為）outsourcing---（目標）boost profit
A. 不打算外包的部分是外部供應商無法提供更廉價產(chǎn)品的部分（不外包的部分與計劃無關，排除）
B. V本身也是供應商（與計劃能否成功無關，排除）
