Overview: The most common category of incongruence between stated goal and behaviour comes from having multiple goals. Multiple goals create uncertainty about primacy. Primacy of goals is necessary to avoid incongruence. Without an identified prime goal and target ranges set for it and the subordinate goals (business objectives), different leaders will manage their teams to impact whichever goal they think is more important.
