Abstract
The paper discusses the different types of project objectives and their identification.Some objectives are explicitly explained in project documents, others are not. Some objectives are implicit in project conditions and constraints: they must be discovered, identified and properly formulated. Other objectives may be instrumentally explained in order to increase effectiveness and determination of project participants. The nature of internal objectives and conflicts between the project objectives and company objectives are also discussed.
