Which term means to share expectations regarding goals, plans, and actions with others?

• A. Expect
• B. Influence
• C. Inspire
• D. Achieve

Answer: (A)

Sharing expectations about goals, plans, and actions is about making clear what you anticipate and what outcomes you want, so others know what to aim for and how to proceed. The best fit here is expect, because to expect in this context means articulating the anticipated results and the standards you want to meet, which helps everyone align their actions and plans. Influencing or inspiring involve affecting others’ attitudes or motivation, while achieve is about reaching a result. Expressing expectations focuses on the shared understanding of what should happen and how things should be done.
