In this session Guido van Drunen, will lead participants through the need for benchmarks. You will learn to identify the risks that are inherent in benchmarks, their design, their use as a measurement and performance management tool, the gaming of benchmarks, and the monitoring of those benchmarks. The presentation will touch on real-life examples where poorly designed benchmarks did result in aberrant outcomes. It will also suggest how to better develop and monitor benchmarks.
