The Leader's Dilemma
Drawing on their work on performance management within the ‘beyond budgeting’ movement over the past ten years, including many interviews and case studies, Jeremy Hope, Peter Bunce and Franz Röösli set out in this book an executive guide to building a new management model based on eight key change management issues: 1. Governance: From rules and budgets to purpose and values 2. Success: From fixed targets to relative improvement 3. Organization: From centralized functions to customer-oriented teams 4. Accountability: From narrow targets to holistic success criteria 5. Trust: From central control to local autonomy 6. Transparency: From closed information to open book management 7. Rewar...
This Is Beyond Budgeting
Beyond Budgeting is the idea of making organizations perform better by changing their management model, including abolishing the traditional budgeting process. The model’s tested and proven leadership and management process recommendations makes organizations more adaptive and human, and helps making agile transformations successful. This book is written for decision makers within an enterprise. In nontechnical language it explains what Beyond Budgeting is, how it works, and why it improves performance through the use of actual cases where it has been implemented. It discusses what challenges will need to be overcome to make implementation succeed and provides the many benefits that can be realized once the organization has completed the implementation.
Beyond Performance Management
There’s a bewildering array of management tools out there. And they all promise to help you excel at the toughest parts of your job: defining your organization’s strategic direction, managing customers and costs, and boosting workforce performance. But just 30 percent of these tools deliver as intended. Why? As Jeremy Hope and Steve Player reveal in Beyond Performance Management, while many tools are sound in theory, they’re misused by most organizations. For example, executives buy and implement a tool without first asking, “What problem are we trying to solve?” And they use tools to command and control frontline teams, not empower them—a serious and costly mistake. In this emin...
The Future of Management Control is Fair
The design of Management Control Systems (MCS) in the context of financial institutions should be reconsidered with regards to their ability to improve organizational justice perceptions. Promoting organizational justice can help banks to build significantly more trust and influence employees’ behaviors in the best interest of the organization. Especially the design of Beyond Budgeting as a MCS that emphasizes social control mechanisms and facilitates autonomous working appears to be a promising concept for the design of future MCS in the context of financial institutions.
Implementing Beyond Budgeting
The author describes the serious and systemic problems with traditional management practices, and provides concrete alternatives and practical guidance on how to implement the beyond budgeting methodology, drawing on cases in which he has implemented beyond budgeting in large, global companies.
Managing in Dynamic Business Environments
This timely and innovative book focuses on budgeting control and ongoing Beyond Budgeting trends and its consequences for the organization.

They show why trust is fast becoming the most consequential life and leadership skill of our time--a career-critical competency required to navigate and compete in this perilous twenty-first-century interdependent, global economy.

The Viable Map Workbook
Beyond Budgeting is an idea that has been around for nearly two decades, and many members of the community have written books about the concepts and how to put them into practice. It has become clear, however, that companies attracted to these ideas have sometimes struggled to implement Beyond Budgeting, often because they have not understood the subtlety or the full implications of the ideas and how to execute change. In addition, those of us leading the Beyond Budgeting movement want to have the biggest impact on the world that we possibly can. And to do this we need to find a way to help as many people as possible to join us in putting these ideas into practice, without investing as mu...
PRESENT SENSE
In this provocative yet practical guidebook Steve Morlidge demonstrates why the approach and methods of performance reporting that all information professionals have been taught fails, and what we need to do differently to help us make sense of the dynamic, complex and data rich world in which we now live and work. Reporting on performance should not be treated as worthy but dull, requiring no more than routine comparisons of actual against targets. This traditional approach is based on the false premise organisations can be managed as if they were a simple mechanical system operating in a predictable environment. And the methods associated with it, such as variance analyses and data tables ...
