Decline and fall of management control‘Shareholder value’ became an obsession Aggressive targets and incentives encouraged the wrong
behavior Regulation and risk management has failed Central control is more difficult and expensive Trust has declined Employees are neither engaged nor empowered

We need new metaphors for management
Organization are obedient machines
Organizations are a collection of replaceable parts (parts determine the performance of the whole)
Organizations comprise of ‘cause-and-effect’ relationships that are predictable
Organizations need central planning, coordination and control
Change is reactive and project-driven
Organization are adaptive systems
Organizations are whole systems (the whole system determines performance)
Organizations are webs of relationships that are unpredictable
Organizations are self-organizing and self-regulating
Change is integrative and adaptive

12 Beyond Budgeting principles
Change in leadership Change in processes
Governance & transparency Goals & rewards
1. Values – Bind people to a common cause, not to a central plan
7. Goals – Set ambitious medium-term goals; not short-term fixed targets
2. Governance – Govern through shared values and sound judgement, not detailed rules and regulations
8. Rewards – Base rewards on relative performance; not on meeting fixed targets
3. Transparency - Make information open and transparent, don’t restrict and control it
9. Planning - Make planning a continuous and inclusive process, not a top-down annual event
Accountable teams Planning & Controls
4. Teams - Organize around a seamless network of accountable teams, not around centralized functions
10. Coordination - Coordinate interactions dynamically, not through annual budgets and planning cycles
5. Trust – Trust teams to regulate and improve their performance; don’t micro-manage them
11. Resources - Make resources available as needed, not through annual budget allocations
6. Accountability – Base accountability on holistic criteria and peer reviews; not on hierarchical relationships
12. Controls - Base controls on fast, frequent feedback;, not on budget variances

Controls based on relative indicatorsUse KPI dashboards to know where you are todayUse rolling forecasts and trends to know where
you’re going in the near-termUse benchmarks to know how you’re doing
against peers and best practicesUse appropriate metrics to know if your strategy
is workingDisconnect measures from fixed targetsTeach people to understand the meaning of
measuresSee measures as patterns, trends and
abnormalities

Despite previous actions, failure calls continue to run at unacceptable levels. We need to urgently rethink how we tackle these problems as our costs remain at far higher levels than best practice competitors

The Wall of Excuses
We’re too busy
We don’t have enough time/money/staff
It’s too much work
It’s too risky
It’s not my responsibility
We tried it before and it didn’t work
The bosses won’t like it
The auditors won’t like it
The regulators will object
I can’t sell the idea to the board
We have too many other priorities
It won’t work in our cultureOur systems can’t handle it
We don’t need to change
Group will feel threatened
We can’t do the ROI
It will take too long
