Integrated planning and performance management

At many companies, planning is poorly integrated, difficult to work with, time-consuming and often unfocused. Many companies still rely on Excel as their main planning tool. But goal-oriented performance management and precise corporate planning are absolutely crucial for ensuring thoroughly efficient performance and consistently pursuing business goals.
