Modern large enterprises are ever more demanding on their leaders to plan, execute and enforce good governance. For many CEOs, this falls under managing their King IV governance requirements, while public sector leaders also have to manage around the Public Financing Management Act and, on local levels, the Municipal Systems Act.
Accomplishing this requires visibility of the enterprise's people, projects and processes. It's also an imperative for devising strategy, and timely measurement of execution and performance.
To meet the building demand for running organisations effectively, e-SEK has developed the CEO Dashboard, a broad-impact strategic execution management tool that is greatly improving how modern organisations plan and thrive.
All-seeing CEO
Modern technology is creating a revolutionary information culture. Insight is much more accessible, not to mention affordable. Whereas companies of the past could, in theory, create deep information systems that kept their leaders informed, those were technically daunting, fiscally draining, and rarely successful.
But that was before the advent of data culture, high-speed connectivity and platform services. Through these, CEOs are able to access a tool that they have never seen before: the CEO Dashboard, a strategic execution management service from e-SEK.
Imagine that: one dashboard that can reveal everything a leader needs to know. e-SEK's CEO Dashboard can be mapped to corporate plans, risk management, governance structures, strategic initiatives, budgets, milestones and more, aligned with the business's rules. Once mapped, the CEO Dashboard delivers corporate performance reports and real-time alerts to a CEO, giving instant insight into the activities that define business outcomes.
"CEOs spend all their time in meetings for a reason: they have to stay informed about what the business is doing," explained Denice Manganye, Managing Partner at e-SEK. "The organisations where leaders don't do this eventually suffer for it. But modern digital innovation can help them stay informed on organisational performance, drawing information from all parts of the company and presented in a dashboard they understand and control. If something is under-performing, they don't have to wait for the next meeting to find out. They can know now and take proactive action or use their knowledge to keep executives on their toes."
