Beyond Budgeting - a management model for complex, dynamic and unpredictable business environments

This is especially the case as business environments become increasingly complex, dynamic and unpredictable. Fortunately, innovative alternatives to traditional management exist; like abolishing traditional budgets and calendar-based management in favour of more decentralised, Agile and human processes.
Join Anders Olesen as he talks about:
- The need for new leadership and management practices
- Problems with traditional management, including budgeting
- Solving the inherent conflicts in traditional budgeting
- The Beyond Budgeting principles and companies on the journey
- Implementation experiences and advice
