The term for achieving goals by making the right decisions and successfully implementing them is called

• A. Efficient
• B. Efficiently
• C. Effectively
• D. Profitably

Answer: (C)

Focusing on effectiveness means aiming for the actual outcomes you want and making sure the chosen actions are carried out well to reach those goals. It’s about doing the right things and implementing them successfully so the intended results are achieved.

Why this fits best: the phrase captures both selecting the appropriate course of action and executing it to produce the desired result. Efficient describes doing tasks with minimal waste, but it doesn’t guarantee the goal is reached. Efficiently is an adverb about how you perform tasks, not about whether the overall objective is achieved. Profitably refers to making money, which is a specific goal and isn’t the general idea of achieving goals through good decisions and implementation.
