In looking at how successful a company has been, many tools and techniques have been put forward over the years. One of the key underlying principles has always been that we only manage what we measure. Said another way, what we measure drives people's activities and performance. If we measure the wrong thing or things that are inconsequential, people’s efforts and behaviors are focused on those things and that generates reduced values, not increased values.
