Back in Argentina where I grew up, my parents sent me to buy 10 meters of rope for our sailing boat. To my surprise, the owner of the shop asked me to measure and cut the rope on my own.

I could not let the opportunity pass, so I measured and cut 11 meters of rope. [read more] I handed them back to the shop owner and with a big smile I said:"Here they are, 10 meters of rope".

The shop owner thanked me with an even bigger smile and replied: "Thank you so much" and as he proceeded to put them on a scale he advised me" "We sell them by the kilo".

This incident started within me a passion for success metrics, leading indicators, benchmarking and Best in Class performance and gave birth to SIMMETHOD driven by the belief that: The way you measure will determine your results.

However, in the new era of intelligent products, the Internet Of Things and digital economy, is the way we measure corporate risk and performance broken and failing the C-suite as evidenced by the latest research?

In spite of billions of dollars spent on predictive analytics, forecasting and business intelligence, why do business fail to perform or continue to miss their targets? Is it due to internal decision making or external circumstances beyond management control?

As uncovered by the Fortune 500 Editorial Team, SIMMETHOD's premise is simple: businesses will succeed or fail due to internal decision making rather than external circumstances beyond management control.
