Why Choose this Training Course?
Organizations often struggle to remain competitive due to the lack of a robust Performance Management System that effectively collects, analyzes, and reports on organizational performance.
An effective performance measurement system is crucial for understanding, adjusting, and improving business operations across all departments. By quantifying success through performance metrics, organizations can not only control but also guide and motivate their operations. Performance indicators serve three key functions:
-
Developing and Guiding Function: They provide a foundation for formulating and implementing organizational strategy.
-
Motivational Function: They drive management to meet goals and inspire all stakeholders to achieve and exceed these objectives.
Performance Measurements and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are essential for monitoring the execution of an organization’s strategy. To stay competitive, it is vital for organizations to have well-defined strategies and effective methods for implementing them. In a 2006 survey by the Monitor Group, senior executives identified "Strategy Execution" as their top priority, underscoring the importance of aligning performance management with strategic goals.This training course enables you to implement or upgrade measurement systems in your organisation & link activities with strategy through success factors & measures.
