Performance Dashboards: Measuring, Monitoring, and Managing Your Business is a remarable book I have seen on the market that explains everything starting from begining to advanced level about dashboards and scorecards.

I found this book through an excellent dashboard [..]. This book proved to be invaluable to my creation of our company's dashboard. I had never created a dashboard before and was able to because of the easy to understand lay out of the book. This book covers different types of dashboards, how to get your data and of couse the creation of a dashboard. This is a great book for the begginer or the seasoned veteran. I would reccomend this book to anyone who wants to create and implement a dashboard.

I have designed and implemented "Dashboards" in many forms going back to the time when any vendor with a "portal" product and some widgets claimed they had a "Dashboard" offering. Today, the successful Performance Dashboards truly are effective business management tools with fresh, personalized content based on business goals and processes.
Books like this above all need to be accessible to their audience, yet complete and have some actionable items that add value. As someone who works intimately with the topics covered in this book, I can attest to its completeness and practical value. In this book Wayne does a fantastic job of covering the wide spectrum of issues involved, yet offers practical guidance to manage the critical first steps in defining and creating Performance Dashboards. I have executed multiple dashboard projects with both in-house solutions and Business Objects Performance Manager. I strongly recommend this book anyone considering sponsoring a Dashboard project - Wayne has nailed both the myriad of potential pitfalls and the positive approach to keep you on track from the start. Excellent book!

This book provides very valuable and practical information for business managers interested in implementing performance dashboards. The author does a great job explaining the different types of performance dashboards and the key requirements for successfully creating them. Real examples are used to illustrate the main points. I found the "Assessing Your Organizational Readiness" and "Critical Success Factors - Tips from the Trenches" sections to be especially useful.
