  7. The Magic Number • Miller (1956) said we typically are not capable to processing more than five to nine district pieces of knowledge at a time. • This is called “the magic number seven, plus or minus two.” 5 - 9

  8. According to his study 6 • The human brain cannot take more than six discreet pieces of visual information. • For this reason, the KPIs come in blocks of six and each wall has six primary KPIs.

  9. Strategic Enterprise Management • An analytical solution that translates a strategy into operational activity • One key feature of SEM is Corporate Performance Monitor (CPM), • Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to monitor actual performance at all levels • An effective monitoring system gives companies a way to determine how applied strategy affects outcome.

Four Perspectives • Financial: • What is the impact of performance on shareholder value (in historical sense)? • Customers: • How are we perceived by our customers (as of today)? • Internal Business Processes: • What core competencies do we possess and what can be developed (from today)? • Learning and Growth: • What is the capacity for the organization to learn and grow (into the future)?
