I don't think goal and target  have the same meaning and are interchangeable because I see business goals and targets.?Could you tell me the difference in meaning btw them?Is there a case they are interchangeable?

Thanks

Goal: I see it as more general, strategic.
Target: I see it as specific, even numerical.
