ABSTRACT

So far in this book I have discussed how you create a strategic roadmap in the forms of value creation maps and value creation narratives. I looked at how to design relevant performance initiators and subsequently discussed how to analyse and interpret these in an enabled learning environment in order to gain management insights and to learn. Recent developments in the software world mean that this Strategic Performance Management process can be supported by software applications (see figure below). Many of the applications have been specifically designed for that purpose and, in this part of the 183book, I will take a closer look at what these applications can and can’t do. Also, in the Appendix, I provide a framework that will help you to select the most appropriate tool for your organization.
