Best of Blog: Dashboards


As a performance management professional, dashboards should be important to me. Dashboards contain key performance indicators that are needed to manage the organization.


 


So I should practice what I preach, right? Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Last week I just bought this car, just for fun. It's a 21 year old Citroen 2CV. If you are from Europe, you will certainly know it. Coming from the US, maybe you've seen it before in pictures; Citroen never had a big presence in the US.


Here's a picture of the car.

Would you like to see the dashboard? Here it is...

I guess today you could call it "minimalistic design." But who cares about the dashboard? I get all the experience I need not by looking at the speed, but by feeling the road going underneath me, the wind coming through the open roof, and from the steering wheel in my hands.

Frank,

As you know, simple machines are among the best ones. So often we try to improve on something that can't be improved upon. As Einstein once said "Any fool can make things bigger and more complex. It takes a touch of genius and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction".
