Why this
workshop is important to you
Almost every company attempts to
measure its R&D efforts in some way, yet industry research shows
that very few are convinced that they are measuring the right
things. Furthermore, R&D professionals often find metrics
burdensome, disconnected from their “real” work or an infringement
on what they view as an inherently creative craft. So what’s wrong
with all those R&D metrics that companies are dissatisfied with?
First, there are too many of them. Second, they are disconnected
from the strategies of the company. Finally, they lack teeth.
This highly practical and interactive
two-day session will enable you to not only overcome typical R&D
metric weaknesses, but also to establish new R&D metrics as a
competitive weapon. This workshop will review detailed case studies
of leading companies that have aligned their organizations from top
to bottom with a straightforward set of metrics projecting both
customer and business needs directly into R&D performance. Designed
specifically for professionals serious about implementing practical
R&D metrics, this session involves hands-on experience in aligning,
setting and monitoring R&D metrics that really matter.
