What is the Enterprise-Class Performance Management course about?

Performance dashboards often fail at the executive level because they’re built for activity tracking, not strategic assurance. Misaligned metrics, inconsistent data sourcing, and weak risk integration lead to second-guessing, delays, and eroded confidence. As boards take greater oversight of technology and transformation outcomes, the gap between operational reporting and board-grade insight is widening , creating friction where alignment is most needed.
