From the publisher
From the rear cover
Traditional management was invented for very different times and is today in serious trouble. The level of volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity in business environments is at a record high. People's expectations toward their employers and leaders have also radically changed. A number of organizations are exploring management innovation that can help them not only to cope, but also to thrive and outperform in these new and different realities. Beyond Budgeting may be the most important new idea out there addressing these radical changes, due to its broad scope and coherent approach. Abolishing the traditional, detailed annual budget is necessary, but not sufficient. Organizations on the journey are questioning their old leadership beliefs and are tearing up their old command-and-control management models, with "agile" and "human" as the foundation for a new start.
Implementing Beyond Budgeting: Unlocking the Performance Potential, Second Edition is both a theoretical introduction and a practical guide to bringing such an empowering and adaptive management model to life. Drawing on the author's twenty years of Beyond Budgeting experience, this book not only demonstrates the serious problems with traditional management through numerous practical examples; it also follows several companies on their Beyond Budgeting journeys, including Scandinavia's largest company Statoil, where the author has been heading up implementation since 2005. You'll get a first-hand glimpse at the reality of transitioning a large multinational company, and gain a real-world perspective on what successful implementation entails.
This new Second Edition has been significantly revised and expanded. It covers the amazing development of the Beyond Budgeting movement and how the Statoil implementation journey has continued since the first edition of this book was published in 2009, sustaining major events such as the 2015 oil price crash. New implementation experiences, great new case stories, new management innovation examples, and new management metaphors are introduced, as well as the author's latest reflections on a range of management issues, including target setting, forecasting, performance evaluation, and incentives. A new chapter on "Beyond Budgeting and Agile" has also been added.
The future of management is here!
