The Basics: Golfing Buddies Go Beyond Lean Six Sigma and the Balanced Scorecard: 1 (Integrated Enterprise Excellence) - Hardcover

Organizations that produce products or deliver services usually track and report activity levels and evaluate the organization’s ability to attain desired goals.But many widely used business management measurement systems and reporting practices experience problems in either implementation or interpretation—problems that can potentially reduce rather than enhance organizational effectiveness.Integrated Enterprise Excellence, or IEE, provides business leaders with the information necessary for appropriate corporate governance, allowing an organization to operate using correct and timely performance measures in a form that is actionable. Implementation of IEE leads to effective organizational strategies and goals along with an improved likelihood of organizational achievement.

Integrated Enterprise Excellence (IEE) introduces a new organizational governance system that integrates analytics with innovation. The IEE system shows business leaders what to measure and report; when and how to report it; how to interpret and use the results to establish goals; how to orchestrate work activities; and how to develop strategies that are consistent with established goals. These strategies ultimately lead to specific projects that enhance organizational focus and success.This volume presents an IEE onset story about four friends who share their experiences with improvement systems while playing golf. They learn how they can improve their games in both business and golf using IEE concepts, going beyond Lean Six Sigma and the Balanced Scorecard.
