Managing a business solely using financial performance measures has been likened to driving a car looking only in the rear-view mirror. While financial reports of past performance are an irrefutable proof of the soundness (or otherwise) of our past decisions, and to that extent guide us for the future, they are at best lag indicators of performance. There is a need to keep a predictive finger on the pulse of the organisation, so that emerging issues can be spotted and timely corrective actions taken. This necessitates going beyond financial measures, and keeping tab on the processes and practices where value is created for the business.
