From groundbreaking initiatives to impactful collaborations, 2024 has been a testament to TKI’s dedication to providing professionals worldwide with the expertise and capabilities needed to thrive in today’s ever-changing business environment. Let’s take a moment to look back at some of the achievements that shaped 2024, and celebrate the hard work and dedication of TKI’s teams.

Celebrating two decades in business and a thriving Community

TKI celebrated its 20 years of innovation, growth, and impact. Founded in 2004 by Dr. Aurel Brudan, TKI has evolved from a pioneer in strategy and performance management into a diversified ecosystem driving progress across business and society. Highlights include creating the world’s largest KPI database and launching enterprises that offer solutions across various sectors, setting benchmarks in knowledge and innovation.

Building on this legacy, TKI has achieved another remarkable milestone by fostering an online community of over 70,000 social media followers and more than 60,000 LinkedIn group members. This growth reflects a strong commitment to enhancing networking connections, which are crucial for driving knowledge-sharing and collaboration.

Empowering growth through consulting, training, and partnerships

In addition to its continued success in community engagement, The KPI Institute (TKI) has made significant strides in consulting, training, and research in 2024, forging numerous partnerships with esteemed organizations worldwide. This year alone, TKI trained 6,787 professionals through its face-to-face training sessions and live-online webinars, bringing its total global reach to 27,382 individuals across 60 countries and further solidifying its role as a leader in empowering professionals and driving organizational growth.

As a trusted advisor to organizations worldwide, TKI made valuable collaborations through its consulting and training services, helping clients integrate advanced performance management strategies and solutions that drive sustainable growth.  

In early 2024, the Global Performance Audit (GPA) Unit, the division at The KPI Institute (TKI) that specializes in strategy and performance management audits, delivered significant milestones through comprehensive maturity assessments for various organizations in Saudi Arabia. One such evaluation was conducted for the Zakat, Tax, and Customs Authority (ZATCA), which achieved a maturity level of “IV – Integrated” on a five-level scale. This distinction highlighted ZATCA’s advanced capabilities in strategic planning, corporate reporting, and performance improvement. [Read the full story HERE]

During the same period, the GPA Unit completed a detailed performance management system maturity assessment for the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties (SCFHS). This review analyzed five critical organizational capabilities: strategic planning, performance measurement, performance improvement, performance culture, and employee performance management, marking SCFHS’s ongoing commitment to excellence.

Research and publications

Furthermore, TKI’s research efforts continued to set industry standards in 2024. The institute published groundbreaking reports offering actionable insights into critical business areas such as employee performance, strategy execution, and business excellence. In addition to regular series like KPI of the Month, Top 10 KPIs, and KPIs for Functional Areas, the Top 25 KPIs series made a comeback in 2024.

This comprehensive collection highlighted the 25 most widely used Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in various functional areas. The selections were based on viewership data from smartKPIs.com, covering the period from January 2023 to April 2024. This edition reflects current trends and preferences in performance measurement, solidifying TKI’s role as a leader in the field. 

Another notable achievement was the release of the Government Services Index (GSI) 2024 report and the State of Strategy Management Practice – 2024 MENA Region report. The GSI serves as a comprehensive benchmark for assessing and measuring government performance, while the State of Report provides insights from leaders of top organizations alongside expert guidance on developing more efficient organizational systems for strategic planning, performance measurement, and execution. 

Based on the findings of the State of Strategy Management Practice 2024 report, TKI hosted an engaging webinar that brought together industry professionals to discuss the key takeaways and actionable recommendations. This event not only enhanced the report’s impact but also fostered meaningful dialogue on advancing strategy management practices.

Aside from providing editing support to other departments and entities within TKI’s ecosystem, and producing regular content and monthly newsletters on two websites: kpiinstitute.org and performancemagazine.org, the team’s significant achievement was the release of four print editions of Performance Magazine in 2024, which covered themes of employee performance, strategy management, government performance, and business excellence. These editions featured insights from industry experts, practical frameworks, real-world case studies, and actionable recommendations, offering professionals a comprehensive understanding of performance management and excellence across diverse sectors.

Additionally, the team began revamping the Performance Magazine website. This improved platform promises a seamless, user-friendly experience, enriched with innovative features, the latest trends, and fresh perspectives on performance excellence. The new website will be launched soon!

Around 67% of the world’s population, or 5.4 billion people, are now online, according to the International Telecommunication Union’s (ITU) report, “Facts and Figures 2023.” Apparently, the demand for high-speed Internet access is increasing, and the telecommunications industry should make sure that its infrastructure can handle the growing usage without compromising quality.

But beyond infrastructure upgrades, it is important that organizations can effectively sustain their systems to constantly meet their goals and maintain reliable service for customers. One approach to achieve this is the implementation of performance measurement systems. This will allow organizations to gather data on network efficiency, easily identify bottlenecks, make well-informed decisions regarding infrastructure investments, and most of all, deliver better customer service.

The KPI Institute (TKI) has released the “STATE OF STRATEGY MANAGEMENT PRACTICE – 2023 GLOBAL REPORT”, which offers an analysis of the factors influencing strategy planning and provides recommendations on how companies can effectively address gaps in the process. 

TKI, a leading global research institute specializing in business performance, conducted the study with 346 respondents representing 69 countries from April to June 2023. This extensive report encompasses key subjects in strategy and performance management, organized into three sections: planning, measurement, and execution. The report also presents suggestions for optimizing strategic approaches and achieving organizational excellence.

One notable finding from the study indicates that gathering insights on value drivers for customers serves as the foremost enabler of strategic planning in organizations. According to the report, “[The result] underscores how respondents perceive the impact of understanding and meeting client needs on driving successful strategies and highlights the importance of customer centricity.”  

The strategy measurement section revealed that key performance indicators are employed equally in corporate performance evaluations and employee performance reviews. The results also show that the Balanced Scorecard and Objectives and Key Results are respondents’ most frequently utilized performance management frameworks.

In the execution section, it is emphasized that enhancing the frequency of performance reporting enables professionals to take proactive measures in response to emerging trends and issues. The majority of the respondents preferred monthly evaluations, followed by quarterly and annual reviews.

Key performance indicator (KPI) selection is similar to laying the groundwork for a strong structure. KPIs are the building blocks of performance measurement, enabling informed decision-making for organizations.

In the same way that building foundations are tailored to the terrain, KPIs ensure companies stay on track toward their goals. It is possible to develop misguided strategies if KPIs are selected incorrectly. However, KPI selection is not easy. In fact, one of the top three issues in strategic planning is identifying the appropriate KPIs, as indicated by the State of Strategy Management Practice in 2022, an international research study by The KPI Institute (TKI).

According to Aurel Brudan, CEO of TKI, choosing the right KPIs is a multifaceted undertaking due to the interdependencies inherent in the process. He explains that the process requires, among other things, extensive research for internal and external documents, the participation of internal stakeholders, and the adaptability to shifting environments or business priorities.

On top of those challenges is the need to determine the quality and attributes of KPIs a company should select. Mihai Toma, TKI’s Managing Director of Consulting Services, recommends that organizations choose KPIs that are useful, reflecting quantitative expressions for achieving key goals. KPIs should also be specified properly, with no jargon or complex concepts. Furthermore, balance is critical, with two KPIs for each target preferably monitored to avoid potential imbalances and enable a full performance review.

Given these challenging requisites, how should organizations approach KPI selection? Similar to how engineers analyze the structural requirements and complexities of a building, organizations must meticulously evaluate their unique needs and objectives when selecting KPIs. The whitepaper titled “TOP 10 KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS 2023: Expert Tips for Choosing the Right Metrics” details the structured method designed by TKI for choosing KPIs and provides strategies for overcoming the most common obstacles in the process. Moreover, the report highlights the most popular KPIs in 2023 on smartKPIs.com, the largest repository of documented KPIs.

Measuring financial performance in today’s dynamic and competitive business landscape goes far beyond traditional metrics. Aside from profitability and cash flow, the revenue growth rate is a vital indicator for companies striving for success. 

Monitoring revenue growth rates help the business make strategic decisions, attract investors, and maintain market competitiveness by comprehensively understanding their financial performance, whether it decreased or increased. It is also important to identify the factors influencing the revenue growth rate, such as choosing the right market, product and services pricing strategy, and customer retention rates.

Choosing the right market focus can help businesses narrow their target market and identify high-quality leads in their chosen segment, pursuing the most profitable customers. Moreover, narrowing market focus can effectively customize products or services to match the market segment’s unique demands and preferences. 

However, even the most profitable segments can lead to lower revenue rates because of the product and service prices as more business competitors enter the market. Hence, the right products and services pricing strategy is essential. According to research, “accurate and effective pricing” is vital for a company to become profitable. All products and services should have pricing plans based mainly on the knowledge of the demands and values of the target market. Based on the same study, value-based pricing is the best method to assess an item’s right price based on the value it generates for clients and their perceived worth. 

With reasonable products and service prices and the best quality value, satisfied customers are more likely to become repeat customers, refer the business to others, and drive long-term revenue growth. A study conducted on businesses in Kurdistan suggests that pricing strategies have a strong and significant impact on customer retention. Based on the study’s results, customers prioritize product pricing over product quality. It was also discovered that implementing an aggressive pricing strategy is more effective in customer retention.

A thorough comprehension of these elements equips organizations to adjust to shifting market conditions, streamline processes, and promote long-term revenue development. But what are the ways in which businesses can monitor their revenue growth rate? There are a few of them such as analyzing revenue trends by regularly reviewing financial statements like income statements, balance sheets and cash flow statements, tracking sales quantity and value over time by monitoring sales reports, and using key performance indicators (KPIs) related to revenue.

The KPI Institute’s infographic titled “KPI of the month: % Revenue growth rate” is an easy guide for businesses to determine whether their revenue has grown or dropped over time and measure the level of its change. Specifically, the % Revenue growth rate calculates the revenue variance percentage over a designated time frame. This can be calculated on a quarterly or annual basis. 

To get a picture of the overall revenue performance, it is essential to monitor the % Revenue growth rate alongside other KPIs, such as $ Net income and $ Financial expenses. Moreover, organizations should take competitive aims and industry standards into account when defining targets as part of the annual budgeting process to make sure their goals are realistic and achievable.

New Zealand’s latest workforce data underscores diversity, fair pay

New Zealand’s “Public Service Workforce Data” for 2022, released by Public Service Commissioner Peter Hughes, gives an overview of employment trends in the public sector. The report covers workforce numbers, ages, genders, ethnicities, occupations, incomes, and gender pay gaps. The data is collected from staff payroll records of all 37 Public Service departments. 

One of the report’s highlights is the increasing diversity in public service. There are now 13.4% of public servants who identify as Asian, up from 9.4% in 2017 and 3.3% in 2000. Another area examined by the report is generational shift. It is estimated that the average age of employees in the public sector is declining. After peaking at 44.8 years in 2015/16, it has dropped to 44.0 years.

Data shows there are now 55.8% of women in senior management roles, up from 53.5% last year and 39.8% in 2010. Meanwhile, the public service gender pay gap decreased to 7.7% from 8.6% in 2021. | Source: https://www.scoop.co.nz

UAE to enhance AI utilization in government services

The UAE government launched the UAE Digital Economy Strategy, with a goal to increase the digital economy’s contribution to the GDP from 9.7% to 19.4%. Over 30 initiatives and programs are included in the strategy, which targets six sectors as well as five new growth areas.

During a meeting in Dubai, Omar Sultan Al Olama, Minister of State for Artificial Intelligence, Digital Economy and Remote Work Applications, said that the UAE Council for AI and Blockchain aims to create opportunities and foster collaboration between different departments. He also said that by adopting new technology and digitization solutions, the country would enhance its competitiveness and global leadership.

The AI Council discussed the implementation of artificial intelligence in critical sectors and ignited competitiveness among government entities. They also support the use of artificial intelligence as a working model and crucial tool in digital transactions in the fields of healthcare, energy, natural resources, blockchain, industry, transportation and logistics, and tourism. | Source: https://www.khaleejtimes.com

Survey reveals what citizens look for in digital public services

In a 2022 survey conducted by Accenture, citizens from North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific cited “ease of use” and “confidence in data security and privacy” as the top factors when asked what would make them more likely to utilize digital services. The survey also found that those who depended more on public services were the largest segment supporting accelerated digital interactions.

“The best step forward to improve customer experiences is to establish simple and secure processes so people can get what they need on the first try,” said Eyal Darmon, Accenture’s global public sector customer engagement lead. 

In the same context, public servants surveyed said that their cyber-security training was insufficient. Only one-third of them claimed to be receiving regular training on cyber and data security. | Source: https://newsroom.accenture.com

Australia plans to reduce emissions by 81%

According to a report issued by Beyond Zero Emissions (BZE) in 2022, clean technologies that are already in use in Australia, such as wind turbines and solar panels, batteries, heat pumps, electrolyzers, and electric cars with chargers, were determined to have the potential to reduce Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions by 81% by 2030. The plan relies on increasing rollout rates of these six key technologies over the coming years.

“Our research shows Australians that emissions-cutting technologies are here, we’re using them and there’s no reason why they can’t be scaled up to help us cut emissions, create jobs, and lay the economic foundations for modern and competitive export industries,” said BZE chief executive, Heidi Lee. | Source: https://www.energymagazine.com.au
