value, and sustainable shareholder value creation.’

management system to be a smoothly running analytical machine, read
and apply the ideas in this book–it’s all you need.’

from hundreds of customer engagements around the world, Gary Cokins

important subtleties that can spell the difference between success
and failure. This is an informative and enjoyable text to
read!’

Warehouse Institute (TDWI); author of Performance Dashboards:
Measuring, Monitoring, and Managing Your Business
’[In this] very insightful book, the view of an integrated
performance management framework with a goal to link various
operational activities with business strategy is an excellent
approach to manage and improve business. Gary’s explanation of
risk-based performance management, for providing the capability to
achieve long-term objectives with reliably calculated risks, is
definitely thought provoking.’
