"Committed to achieve and exceed assigned targets"

Committed to achieving ..... <--- Right? But, how to re-write the whole sentence?

Thanks

That's not a complete sentence, but this is one way to correct what you've written:

"Committed to achieving and exceeding assigned targets"

Or as Anon suggested:
"Committed to not only achieving but also exceeding assigned targets"

"Committed to achieve and exceed assigned targets" Achieving and exceeding

Committed to achieving ..... <--- Right? But, how would you re-write the whole sentence?

Hi Qut,

When we used “commit” in the context of a commitment as in “we are committed to providing our customers with the highest satisfaction”, we are saying we are dedicated to this mission; and it’s used in a passive voice.

 

When we use it in the context of a crime, as in “the police determined that the crime was committed sometime between 1-3 am in the morning”, it means the crime was carried out during this period by the perpetrator.
