Would you be so kind to explain me why most of you, gentlemen, up/North
use Goal with a rather generic, broad purpose, meaning and Objective as a
very well defined "Goal"?

A lot people in my country, Mexico, including myself, use both terms the
other way around, e.g., Objective is generic and Goal specific. (The
Webster Dictionary does not make a substantial difference between them).

Also, what does HIMO means?
Sorry, but I am a new member in this discussion list.

Thanks for your patience
