Sobre o que é?
If you wait for the market to tell you how you’re performing, it’s too late.
Recommendation
Performance Drivers provides a comprehensive explanation of the balanced scorecard system, which is designed to help companies measure and improve their performance. More importantly perhaps, the book also includes an honest assessment of the balanced scorecard’s shortcomings and weaknesses, along with suggestions on how you can improve the effectiveness of your own system and increase its chances of success. The writing tends to the dry, which might be a result of the translation from its original Swedish. Nevertheless, getAbstract.com strongly recommends this book to anyone interested in learning the intricacies of the balanced scorecard.
