Mission statements really ought to state the ultimate purpose of an organisation - its desired impact on its customers. To know if an organisation is fulfilling its mission (and isn't that important to know?), it needs to be measured. But most mission statements are immeasurable.

If you're problem isn't having too few performance measures, then most certainly it's having too many. We don't like to let go of our performance measures because we might just need them someday, and it took a lot of effort to get them in the first place. These aren't good reasons for keeping them, and doing so will cause us more harm than good.


Whether you're an executive looking for the right person to lead your corporate performance measure implementation, or you're a strategy or performance professional wanting to position yourself as a performance measurement expert, you need to understand what mastery in the field of performance measurement looks like. You need to be able to recognise someone who possesses this mastery.
