Change Better. We support companies to structurally improve their business…

In a world of constant disruption leaders navigate unknown terrain. To support their direction the creation of a data driven leadership culture enbles to unlock your potential to realize your ambitions. Based on our experience, we share a structured approach to develop data driven leadership.

Without data you're just another person with an opinion


A structured approach to realize data driven leadership is, as follows :



Strategic Roadmap


(re)design the strategic roadmap by using historic data. Invest sufficient time and resources in fit for purpose IT systems and training  around continuous improvement and data analytics



Key Performance Indicators


define, measure, analyse, improve and control a data driven KPI tree



Visual Management


Enable everyone to use a limited number of standard dashboards. First, listen to the voice of the business/ customer before starting to develop. Final, succesful implementation is only possible after a demo and training next to 24F7 helpdesk support 



Improve Community


Establish active communities around specific focal points. Handpick your members wisely, focus on KPIs and keep it simple. This is a long term project, which takes months or years to complete. Planning is an ongoing process



Data Driven Leadership Culture


Support effective evidence-based decision making. It requires a substantial investment in training hours to embed a data driven leadership culture across the organization. Once established act upon shifting customer demand and latest market intelligence trends.
