Maximizing value for an organisation and its stakeholders is the raison’d’etre of any organization. While almost all organizations implicitly recognize the objective of enhancing value, few have internalized it through their management practices. In other words, value creation may not be possible unless strategic planning and evaluation, budgeting, performance management and incentive compensation are aligned towards this end.
Over the last decade, noticeably, there has been a tremendous increase in the evolution of ‘Value based performance metrics’ like Economic Value Added (EVA), CFROI (Cash Flow Return on Investment) etc. Their proponents’ claim that these metrics explain changes in wealth creation better than any traditional accounting based measure. Many organisations therefore, use these metrics to evaluate corporate performance.
You will understand how performance metrics works, how this would benefit your organisation, why and how an increasing number of companies have designed it to link to business strategies and objectives, and the critical success factors that will ensure the performance metrics you set are beneficial to your organisation. |
