Filled with specific examples, it is essential reading for leaders at all levels of an organization serious about getting it right."

"No surprise, Howard Dresner has it right: as the global competition heightens, corporate hierarchies flatten, and companies increasingly compete on speed, organizations need to embrace the discipline and art of performance management to keep apace. This book is a must-read for business and technology executives who want to help their organizations (and themselves) thrive in the years ahead."

Aus dem Klappentext

The Performance Management Revolution

Business Results Through Insight and Action"Some revolutions—like the American Revolution—are bloody and noisy, while others—like the Industrial Revolution—are quieter and slower. In the long run, though, both kinds of revolutions lead to profound change. Today, I believe we are in the early stages of one of the quiet revolutions. At the heart of this revolution is an increase in human freedom in business. The Performance Management Revolution provides a compelling and insightful description of the profound changes that will take place, what they will really mean for you, and how you can take advantage of them to improve your business performance."
