Connected Planning: A Playbook for Agile Decision-Making
Ron Dimon’s thought-leading second edition of the book originally entitled Enterprise Performance Management Done Right, published in 2012, is a practical road map for using connected planning to develop an agile organization and to navigate the complex enterprise performance management landscape.
According to esteemed author, researcher, and management professor Dr. Christopher Neck, “In the same way that one needs to be self-leading to finish a grueling marathon, an organization must be self-leading in order to execute on its plans in an efficient and effective manner. What drives self-leadership at all levels in an organization? The people within the organization of course – and those people must be involved in the planning occurring in an organization. Without a plan, an organization has no direction.”
Since 2012, much has changed in the world of connecting strategy with improved performance: new, cloud-based, in-memory technologies have been adopted by the largest organizations in the world. This book is for CFOs, CIOs, their direct reports, and any organizational visionary or aspiring leader who wants to “bring it all together” and create an actionable vision and plan for improving readiness, resilience, and performance.
Today’s organizations have enormous amounts of data and lots of technology but, continually, decisions are being made without the benefit of either of those tools. Executives require a structured framework for gathering, analyzing, and “what-iffing” the best ways to deploy people, capital, and time.
In Connected Planning: A Playbook for Agile Decision Making, accomplished consultant and author Ron Dimon delivers a practical and actionable framework for implementing and managing next generation planning functionality for better insight, focus, and alignment. This book demonstrates that connected planning and Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) can have a positive impact on revenue growth, operating margin, asset utilization, and cash cycle efficiency, but that an effective and cohesive blueprint must first be employed.
