They are all buzzwords that are popular among corporate managers.  The difference isn't important, since the people who use them have no souls and aren't capable of carrying any of them out anyway.

A leader is someone who has a vision and the ability to convince others to follow that vision. A manager is someone who helps to implement and oversee the strategies and plans of a leader to make sure the vision is carried out.\n\nThink of the leader as the the "Captain of a Ship"...the captain determines the destination and has a vision of where the organization as a whole is going.  The manager might be thought of as "the first mate", they ensure that the leaders wishes are carried out, by assigning the crew specific actions to reach the goal and ensuring that they do their jobs.  The Captain/Leader charts the course and the First mate/manager carries out the actions needed to get to the destination.

I assume that the roadmap is refering to something like the deployment schedule of products and/or services. The roadmap would therefore be the tactical execution of the company's objectives.\n\nFor example, if a company's objective is to gain as much market share as possible by doing a rapid introduction of a series of new services and product in the next workyear, the roadmap will be skewed towards a plan where there will be more deployment and marketing of such services and products early in the year and more of consolidation in the later part of the year.

Good answer above. I think it's Subjective vs Objective and Impressions vs Facts.

It is difficult to strive towards something that has not been defined clearly.  Goal setting provides not only a direction for action, but a measureable endpoint.  It becomes the difference between saying "I want to go to school to get a better job" and "I want to earn a BA, then do graduate work to earn a Masters in my field, so I can get the job that I desire."

Corporate objectives are the specific things the corporation says it will do. These usually are either the same objectives that are listed on the mission statement, or are more specific objectives of general ones mentioned in the mission statement.

I've heard of vision statements and mission statements and since they usually mean the same thing, my guess is that it is a statement of purpose for whomever is making it.

(1st) Program and project are not identical, but similar. project means intended (planned) activity. program means system of implementing planned activity (project). Plan means creating a program to be followed to implement the project.\n(2nd) No, not the same. see 1 for details.\n(3rd) No, there are no minimum requirements unless you want to be involved in activities that have set minimum requirements (such as an employment role). in these cases the requirements vary greatly. All that is needed is a logical mind. clairvoyance will set you apart from the average, and education / experience / knowledge will grant you respect.\n(4th) I am good enough to not need to develop projects. I know enough to know not to bother.\n(5th) I am a spiritual scientist and prefer to live in the now rather than spend my time attempting to predict the future based on the past. Therefore my strategy is always to focus on the most important current thing or things.\n(6th) The most important thing is to keep the most important thing the most important thing. - Steven R Covey (7 habits of highly effective people)

In a nutshell, it is the attempt to understand the goals and objectives of the shareholders in relation to their holdings with the company.\n\nPerformance objectives consist of the financial requirements for the organisation and other key result areas, which are critical for the organisation’s short-term and long-term success. These include profitability, return on investment (ROI) return on assets (ROA), earnings per share (EPS), dividends and cash flow. They are usually determined on the basis of satisfying the needs of the stakeholders, which includes shareholders and others who might have a ‘stake’ in the business such as management, employees, customers, suppliers and creditors. The driving force underpinning financial performance in the majority of cases is shareholder value. If the organisation performs well financially, share prices are maintained or increased. If financial performance is below expectations, share prices drop, limiting the organisation’s ability to attract equity financing to underwrite future operations and growth while also exposing the organisation to the danger of a takeover. Poor financial performance, particularly cash flow, also limits an organisation’s ability to attain debt financing (borrowing).\n\nHope this helps!

Everyone on the team needs to have a vision of the outcome and work together to achieve that.  There needs to be reward for all involved for everyone to have the vision. Communication is key. Each team member needs to be kept informed at all times as to how the mission is going and assistance needs to be available at all times as well.  As long as there is a goal and a reason for everyone to work together as a team, clearly defined tasks, and help for those who need it, the team will succeed at whatever they set out to do.
