8. Beyond Budgeting
Mr. Wallander, when he had taken over the position as CEO of the Svenska
Handelsbanken bank had come to the conclusion that it is impossible to forecast
what will happen in a complex commercial market. So, he said, it is much better
not to forecast.
He was convinced, that it is much better to manage a business according to what
really happens, instead of always looking on a
fi
ctitious budget, which was set up
many months before. If you have a budget, you tend not to see what happens in
reality and not to be as
fl
exible as if you don’t have such a detailed plan.
He considered the budgeting process as an unproductive negotiation process. They
negotiate a budget
fi
gure that they know they would be able to over perform. The
outcome won’t be their best guess. It’s something arti
fi
cial, which has in most cases
nothing to do with market and business reality. Therefore he said, a budget is
totally unnecessary; he even called it “an unnecessary evil”.
