Corporate Performance Management is a management control from strategy till shop floor. "If you can't measure, you can't manage," legendary management guru Peter Drucker once asserted. He was right. Managing performance means understanding results, setting metrics, fixing plans, and making decisions to ensure it happens. It takes multi-faceted approaches from multidimensional perspectives.

          Five “WHAT”s in Performance Management  



What are the Characteristics of a Robust Performance Management System (PMS) Although almost all organizations understand how crucial their people factors are for the ultimate business success.
