Description

If your KPIs are not adding substantial benefits to your organisation you may have the wrong measures. By purchasing this implementation guide (whitepaper + E-templates) you will be taking a step to transform performance in your organisation.

For years many organizations have used what they thought were KPIs but the measures have not had the impact management and the Board were seeking. KPIs are mislabelled and misused in many organizations. With over 20 KPIs organizations lack focus, lack alignment and under achieve. In fact, there are normally less than 10 true KPIs in an organization and these are measured and reported 24/7, daily, or at the outside weekly.

The whitepaper has been updated with David Parmenter latest work post the 4th edition of his bestselling KPI book. The E-templates are emailed with the PDF whitepaper. This guide will show you how to choose the right KPIs and will be useful for organisations regardless as to whether they have a balanced scorecard or not.
