More Description
Organizational performance is a fascinating topic, one with many faces. The first and most important asset of nearly every organization on the road to corporate performance management is intellectual capital. Building a strong commitment for, and skills in CPM is essential for a successful implementation. Strangely enough, many practical examples show that failures are most often due to a direct neglect of this asset.
There is no such thing like a "cut-and-dried" or "one-size-fits-all" solution to implement corporate performance management. Every situation and every challenge requires a tuned approach. From Darts to Focus will provide you with a basic set of rules and methods, that you can mould to your specific needs to manage and improve the performance of your organization. This book intends to help people to stop throwing darts at their organizational challenges and focus on the issues that matter, in the most practical way.

In order to succeed one should cover all components of this set, in the shortest time frame possible. If you want to turn around the performance of your company successfully, you should stay away from "flavor of the month" actions and apply the ingredients of CPM with common sense, a hands-on approach and respect for your specific challenges. This book is based on practical experience, therefore, it is intended to be used in a practical way.
