that sets top
performers apart

6. 1. Buy-In
Don’t make performance
management a top management
initiative – ensure buy-in from the
top to the bottom. Make it
relevant to everyone!

7. 2. Motivation
Don’t manage performance for
someone else. Make sure you do it
because you want to, in order to
improve performance!

8. 3. Alignment
Make sure you align strategic with
operational performance
management. Don’t run them in
siloes like many companies!

9. 4. Analytics
Align your traditional performance
management with your analytics
and business intelligence
activities. Again, no siloes!

10. 5. Time Focus
Make sure your performance metrics
look into the future rather than the
past! Predictive performance is
the future.

11. 6. Data Quality
Make sure data quality is
managed throughout your business.
Remember:
Garbage in, garbage out!

12. 7. Technology
Use the right software tools to
manage performance. Office tools
are not the way to do it! Use proper
analytics, reporting and dashboard
tools.
