Do NOT plan Activities!
In my opinion this is exaclty the strong point for MBO, that you do NOT plan activities, but define responsabilities by defining objectives for your employees (and the management objectives in which those need to be embedded).
This means a cultural challenge - not to define the actions but the outcome of them!

Drucker concepts
Business has the social responsibility to
1 define the action
2 define the performance
3 allocate the responsibility
4 review performance
Individuals have a wish to succeed, imagination and initiative and have "freedom to act, but with responsibility" so
1 are free to carry out the action in any way they like
2 are responsibly for their actions
3 co-operatively review their actions.
So yes the management culture has changed for both the manager and the individual.
