The New Book "Performance Master - Take a Holistic Approach to Unlock Digital Performance" Introduction

Enterprise Performance Management is a multidisciplinary management discipline to run numbers in context, leverage data to tell stories and keep digital fit for the long term.


The purpose of the book “Performance Master: Take a Holistic Approach to Unlock Digital Performance “is to provide an in-depth understanding and share unique insight about how to take a holistic approach to measuring and managing enterprise digital performance. Without measurements, it can be hard to tell whether attempted improvements achieve the expected results or not. It's fair to say that any organization didn't have a systematic approach to performance assessment and measurement at both strategic and operational level has a giant blind spot that is impairing their performance. A well-designed performance management system is a necessary foundation for continuous improvement.

  • Chapter 1 Digital Performance Assessment: Making an objective assessment is the first step in performance management. Corporate Performance Management is a management control from the strategy till shop floor. Managing performance means evaluating performance and understanding results, setting metrics, fixing plans, and making decisions to ensure it happens. This also means:
-Translating the business strategy into operational terms.
-Aligning the organization to create synergies.
-Making strategy everyone’s everyday job and a continual process.
-Mobilizing change through executive leadership anticipation, monitoring results and act.

  • Chapter 2 Digital Performance Indicator: "If you can't measure, you can't manage," the legendary management guru Peter Drucker once asserted. He was right, just not right enough. The fact of the matter is that it's a lot easier to get metrics wrong than right, and the damage caused from getting them wrong usually exceeds the potential benefit from getting them right. Choosing the right KPIs is crucial. The challenge is that people have their own take on KPIs. KPIs must be aligned with the corporate goals and objectives, but should also be directly relevant to the activities that businesses are attempting to manage. Selecting the right measure and measuring it right are both art and science. KPIs influence management behavior as well as business culture, and poorly designed or implemented KPIs can be very damaging the "culture of the team" and the quality of business execution.

  • Chapter 3: Digital Performance Dots Connection: Enterprise Performance Management is an integration of multiple management disciplines and the development of a set of performance management practices. The business management is, in essence, the strategy management and performance management continuum. Hyper-connectivity is one of the most critical digital characteristics. It is important to connect the dots between performance management and other management disciplines, to understand that digital business development & transformation is the paradigm shift which takes a multidisciplinary approach. In modern socially responsible companies, it isn't just about WHAT (performance result) you have achieved, but also about WHY (the strategic vision) and HOW (the decision-action scenario) you have achieved it.

  • Chapter 4 Digital Performance Scoreboard and Dashboard: The balanced scorecard is the balanced scorecard model offers a way for a corporation to gain a wider perspective on its strategic decisions by considering the impact on finances, customers, internal processes and employee satisfaction. A business dashboard is "an easy to read, often single page, real-time user interface, showing a graphical presentation of the current status (snapshot) and historical trends of an organization’s key performance indicators to enable instantaneous and informed decisions to be made at a glance.

  • Chapter 5 Digital Performance Management Maturity: Digital businesses become overwhelmingly complex to run, different organizations take different approaches to pursue high-performance results. Enterprise Performance Management is more as decision management. Enterprise Performance Management is the integration of multiple methods to make better decisions and implement the strategy seamlessly. The company’s performance is directly related to the decisions people make every day—from executives to the frontline, across functional areas and regions. Performance management facilitates the flow of the right information to the right people at the right time to get answers to the right questions, to help and coordinate your strategy, tactics, and risks.
