This volume documents the results of global research on customer management (CM) funded by QCi, IBM and OgilvyOne. It is based on the diagnostic tool developed by QCi, the Customer Management Assessment Tool (CMAT), which is recognized as the global CRM scorecard and benchmark "best practice" standard for assessing how well organizations manage their customers. Drawing on the results of research using CMAT in over 300 leading companies around the world and across a wide variety of sectors, the authors present their findings. The detailed cases illustrate the gains to be made from managing customers well and include: BP; Barclaycard; BskyB; Hyundai; Mobil; Prudential; Smithkline Beecham; John Lewis; NatWest Bank; and Rolls Royce. The accompanying free CD-ROM contains a mini version of CMAT.

Business Process Management and the Balanced Scorecard shows managers how to optimally use the balanced scorecard to achieve and sustain strategic success even as the business environment changes. It exceptionally fills the gap between theory and application to facilitate the use of processes as a strategic weapon to deliver world-class performance.

The Personal Balanced Scorecard (PBSC) is a journey into the inner self, where values, hopes, dreams and aspirations lie quietly waiting to be discovered. Taking the journey as an individual allows you to view your life objectively and authentically as a whole person and provides a roadmap of your dreams and aspirations translated into manageable and measurable milestones. As a part of the Total Performance Scorecard (TPS) process which I introduced in 2003 in Total Performance Scorecard: Redefining Management to Achieve Performance with Integrity, and which has been translated into more than 20 languages, the Personal Balanced Scorecard can also be an effective way for managers to coach others to achieve integrity and alignment between work and life. The benefit comes from changing individual behavior in order to drive organizational effectiveness, enhance performance, and increase self-awareness, personal responsibility and motivation. PBSC is an integral part of this organic and holistic Total Performance Scorecard process, which is an organizational and cultural change tool and a method for ongoing effectiveness. Its uniqueness lies in aligning and a combination of Personal and Organizational goals to result in Individual Performance Plans for each employee. The focus of this book is the PBSC portion, which comprises a search for self-knowledge, self-discovery and self-mastery.
