Book description
Written by Bjarte Bogsnes, Beyond Budgeting pioneer,
Implementing Beyond Budgeting
reveals best practices from actual cases where the author headed up
implementation of Beyond Budgeting in large global companies. Beginning
with a Foreword by Robert Kaplan, cofounder of the Balanced Scorecard,
this book reveals how your organization can maximize a performance
climate with teams committed to a common purpose, shared rewards, and
sustained value creation. This innovative book lucidly presents how
every organization can release the ambition and energy of its people who
were previously slaves to the budgeting process.
Bjarte Bogsnes has
a long international career in the oil business, both in finance and
HR. As group controller for the petrochemicals company Borealis, he
headed the abolishment of budgeting in this company in the mid-1990s
and has been advocating the Beyond Budgeting principles ever since. He
is now heading up StatoilHydro's Beyond Budgeting project. Bjarte is
also Chairman of Beyond Budgeting Round Table Europe and is a popular
business speaker internationally.
