If your company doesn’t have a Fast Close, then you don't have a company. You have a big f@*king mess.
Fast Close means that the month’s numbers (incl. all reporting internal & external) are closed on the 2nd day of the following month the latest.

Pity that’s not standard practice yet, right?

If your interests lie in the fields of corporate financial management, #controlling, and Beyond Budgeting, then the latest research paper from the BetaCodex Network on #RelativeTargets should be especially interesting for you! Our 22nd white paper outlines how to overcome fixed #targets and incentives, and eliminate the need for #annual planning, budgeting, cost management and obnoxious resource allocation, for good. It's the promise of #BeyondBudgeting, fulfilled.

Don't miss out on tomorrow's BetaCodex LIVE session, in which @soundslikeryan and I will talk about the latest #BetaCodex research on org #transformation and the #RelativeTargets approach.

The research paper: https://betacodex.org/white-papers/paper/relative-targets-patterns-in-practice

The #BetaCodex Network just published a brand new research paper about the #RelativeTargets approach. "Relative Targets: Patterns in Practice” is now available for free download, free of registration, from the BetaCodex website. http://www.betacodex.org/white-papers

On performance systems that work. Without shitty target negotiations. Without top-down steering that claims to be "participative." Without nonsensical annual planning and obnoxious indicator-massaging. It's called #RelativeTargets.

Stop OKRing around!

Instead, opt for the #RelativeTargets approach to performance systems:
It's straightforward. It requires neither planning, nor forecasting, nor window-dressing, nor target negotiations (at all!). It will forever make the members of an organization be aware of their organization's reality. And that's quite a feat.

Yesterday's edition of BetaCodex LIVE is online! Rijon Erickson and I talked about the Relative Targets social technology (www.relativetargets.com), about what it entails and about why Relative Targets is about "no plans, all performance!"

I am convinced that ALL org design is political - whether we like it or not. Command-and-control organization is political, the choice between #centralization or #decentralization is political, the choice between steering or coherent self-organization in absence of steering is political.

That is what the #BetaCodex is about: https://www.betacodex.org, what #CellStructureDesign and #RelativeTargets are about:
https://www.cellstructuredesign.com
https://www.relativetargets.com

#RelativeTargets is a fascinating concept from the realm of the #BetaCodex: Get rid of planning, for good. Provide transparent, fast & insightful measures and reports. Without the hassle of having to negotiate targets. Ever. Again.
