Strategy and Performance Management Maturity Assessment

Your strategy is approved. Your KPIs are documented. Your initiatives are underway.

And the question rarely asked: do these elements actually work together?

Between setting direction and translating it into daily performance lies a chain of connected links. One broken link is enough to disable the entire chain, no matter how solid the rest may be.

This assessment helps you see where your practices stand today, and which link deserves your attention first.

Know where you stand before you decide where to go.

What Does the Assessment Measure?

The assessment measures strategy and performance management maturity across six dimensions covering the full chain, from setting direction to translating it into individual performance. Each dimension has four questions where you select the statement closest to your organization’s reality from five options describing existing practices.

  • Strategic Planning Management measures the methodology behind building your strategy, the clarity and coherence of its components, and the regularity of its review and update cycle.
  • Performance Measurement Management measures the logic behind your indicator design, the basis for setting targets, and who owns them and is held accountable.
  • Performance Management measures how you collect and analyze performance data, and whether measurement results actually change your decisions.
  • Horizontal and Vertical Alignment measures how your initiatives connect to your strategic objectives, the logic behind prioritization, and the consistency of indicators across levels.
  • Performance Culture and Enablement measures the level of organizational awareness of performance, the readiness of your talent, and the clarity of roles and responsibilities.
  • Employee Performance Management measures how your employees’ goals connect to organizational direction, the objectivity of their evaluation cycle, and its impact on their development and incentives.

Benefits of the Assessment

  • Diagnose measure your current practices and identify areas for improvement.
  • Benchmark understand where you stand on the maturity scale.
