Concepts such as Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), Balanced Scorecard, Business Intelligence and Data Visualization are essential for managing today's organizations, yet so difficult to get right.

In general, the lack of standards regarding the definition, classification and usage of specific tools make both research and application of performance management principles difficult.

KPIs are considered building the blocks of any performance management system. Yet, many performance management efforts are ineffective due to their incomplete definition, documentation, understanding and usage.

The Balanced Scorecard is the most popular performance management system, yet its effectiveness in practice is limited in many organizations which fail to generate benefits from implementation.

Business Intelligence has many promises, yet it is difficult to find the right balance between cost, usability and generated value.

These are some of the concepts members of this group are invited to address. In addition, some of the topics to be covered by group discussions are:
• General issues relating to strategic, operational and individual performance management.
• Designing and implementing solutions based on these concepts.
• Discussing good and bad practices.
• Notifications of events (courses and conferences) relevant to Performance Management as a discipline.
• Recommendations of relevant resources. « less
