To manage simply, divide and control

Divide your business into

1. Processes and projects, controlled by outputs
2. Manager's responsibility centers. Team members pure indicators controlled by KPIs
3. Small profit centers controlled by margin or contribution
4. Customer segments controlled by satisfaction
5. Taskforces controlled by results
6. Activities controlled by return on investments

Assign three pure performance indicator per manager

Ask your team member to accept the full responsibility for at least three pure "no excuses" business performance indicators

Use the full delegation method. Check that if all your manager get their indicators in the green, your own scoreboard is automatically in the green
