Your private PuMP Blueprint Workshop is just for your colleagues, in your organisation, with a focus on your own strategy.
Together, in teams, you’ll learn the proven how-to techniques to design, align, implement, report and use performance measures to execute strategy, improve performance, and reach targets.
Close your strategy-execution gap.
Successfully implementing an organisation’s strategic direction depends on many things, but a high-performance culture is at the core. And the key to a high-performance culture is meaningful measurement with PuMP. That’s because done well, PuMP powerfully engages everyone in focusing on, aligning to, and owning their part in executing your organisation’s strategy.
Performance measurement isn’t about brainstorming or buying industry KPIs off the shelf. It’s not about holding people accountable to hitting targets, either. Proper performance measurement, the PuMP way, is about teams collaborating to close performance gaps with evidence-led decisions and actions.
Get people engaged and aligned to your organisation’s strategy.
When you have a core group of people trained in PuMP, strategy execution is easier and organisational performance improves sooner. Your PuMP champions will support each other and lead any and every team to align their goals to the strategic direction, meaningfully measure those goals, and achieve them – all with higher engagement and ownership than ever before.
With your own private (in-house) PuMP Blueprint Workshop, you can:
- Close your strategy-execution gap.
- Reach more targets (that matter), sooner and with less effort.
- Get a higher rate of return on every improvement initiative.
- Build a performance culture, where people are fully engaged in the part they play in fulfilling the mission and pursuing the vision.
Measuring performance can be easier, faster, more meaningful and engaging.
Most of us – executives, managers, strategy or performance professionals, and analysts – struggle to make the best use of measurement as the powerful catalyst it is for strategy execution. But it helps to know that our struggles with measurement are, surprisingly, universal. We struggle to:
- Easily find meaningful measures
- Get true buy-in to measuring what matters
- Strongly align measures to strategy
- Measure intangible goals
- Use measures to improve and reach targets
We all want performance measures that catalyse a high-performance culture, one that reaches goals, continually improves performance, and achieves excellence. To have this, we can eliminate the causes of these struggles with techniques that really work!
The PuMP techniques replace bad KPI habits.
In the absence of a proper performance measurement methodology, some bad KPI habits have become common practice. Some of the bad KPI habits are:
- Brainstorming KPIs and measures
- Writing goals with weasel words
- Not giving people ownership of measures
- Measuring the performance of people
- Rushing too quickly to build dashboards
The PuMP Blueprint was designed to replace these bad KPI habits with techniques that work, without struggle.
PuMP has been proven over 20 years (around the world, in all sectors and hundreds of industries) as a practical and engaging method to measure what matters.
“PuMP is a great program. It’s making it very easy for us to develop meaningful measures for our organisation.”
Amanda Kent, Public Service Department, New Zealand
PuMP is your KPI know-how & can-do.
The PuMP Blueprint Workshop teaches the how-to techniques of a deliberate and proven performance measurement methodology.
The workshop focuses on practical techniques, logical templates, real-life case studies, engaging interaction, and time for practice with expert coaching. You will:
- Make your strategy measurable and easier to communicate and cascade
- Select and design performance measures that are meaningful, quantitative, and feasible
- Get buy-in from staff and stakeholders to own performance measurement and improvement
- Bring your measures to life, using the right data and with the right ownership
- Clearly see the real signals from your measures about whether performance is improving or not
- Design insightful reports and dashboards that focus discussion on improvement actions
- Reach your performance targets, with strong alignment between measures, goals and actions
All participants get a practical reference workbook, copies of all the PuMP templates, a case study, and optional PuMP Certification, provided by international certifier, APMG.
PuMP is proven, and certified.
“I contracted Stacey to deliver a number of training programs for the Department… I cannot speak highly enough of Stacey and her PuMP Blueprint. There is a lack of good quality performance measurement training in Australia and I highly recommend Stacey’s training as the best in the business.”
Melinda Varley, Director Business Performance Management, Australian Public Service
On-site or online, it’s your choice.
We can deliver your private PuMP Blueprint Workshop either on-site or online, and tailored to suit your needs:
- 3 full consecutive days on-site (at your venue)
- 5 half-days online (with Zoom)
- or a schedule we design with you, to suit your operational needs
For both our on-site workshops and online workshops, we design the experience for high engagement, personal interaction, and group collaboration.
“The workshop was brilliantly paced – normally on other full day workshops one can struggle to retain attention whereas at PuMP the pace was a good mix of listen, learn and apply steps, then break cycle. The experience I had reflects the feedback I have read of predecessors with me feeling fired up and champing at the bit to get on.”
Steve Holley MBA BEng, Head of ICT Customer and Business Support, Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
About PuMP’S Creator, Stacey Barr
Stacey Barr is an evidence-based leadership and organisational performance measurement specialist. She is the creator of PuMP and all its programs, host of PuMP Academy, and author of two books, Practical Performance Measurement and Prove It!
Stacey created PuMP in the 1990s, when she worked in the corporate world, to overcome her own struggles with how to measure performance.
Since then, Stacey discovered that her struggles were common for almost everyone else, regardless of their sector, industry or country. And PuMP quickly became a world-renowned methodology for practical and meaningful performance measurement.
She is known especially for her practicality, and the way she takes abstract concepts like measurement and makes them clear, logical, engaging, and easy to apply.
