Delivering good performance and continuously improving what you do is vital to the success of any organisation, business unit or individual.


The Advanced Performance Institute offers practical and tailored support on all aspects related to organisational performance. We are the leading experts in performance and have a large and successful track record of helping corporate clients as well as not-for-profit organisations and government organisations of all shapes and sizes improve the way they are managing, measuring and delivering performance [see our client list].



We provide tried and tested solutions for:


Strategy Management
In order for any organisation to be successful it needs a good plan that is clearly understood and executed well. We work with organisations on any aspect of strategy development and strategy execution.


Performance Management
Managing performance is THE most critical task of any executive or manager.  If organisations get it right, their performance management processes allow them to monitor, manage and improve the execution of the strategy and deliver success. We can help you put these processes in place.


Performance Measurement and KPI Design
Every organisation needs relevant performance indicators to monitor and improve its business. Key performance indicators (KPIs) are the vital navigation instruments that help them understand whether they are on a successful journey or not. We can help you design meaningful Key Performance Indicators.


Business Intelligence and Analytics
To really understand performance organisations need to turn their data into relevant insights. This requires appropriate approaches to collecting, storing, analysing and reporting data. We work with organisations to create the processes, infrastructure and competencies to make BI and analytics work.


Performance Reporting and Dashboard Design
In order to turn data and information into knowledge that can be acted on organisations need good performance reports or dashboards that provide the vital insights in a clear and concise manner.  We can help you design state-of-the-art performance reports and dashboards.




We can help you perform better - but don't take our word for it, read our client case studies and best-practice examples in our case study and publication library.

The Advanced Performance Institute helped our team of directors to agree on an integrated strategy, all mapped on one piece of paper and they gave us an easily understandable, staged process to form our Balanced Scorecard from our high level strategy

The Advanced Performance Institute profoundly challenges many prevailing assumptions about measurement and management. It is your chance to be enlightened. If you feel that you are measuring the wrong things, if you feel you haven't identified all your intangible value drivers, and if, like DHL, you think you should, then talk to them.
Gary Crates, Commercial Director, DHL
The Advanced Performance Institute has helped us to get a grip on our strategy. Before, we were struggling to agree on one strategy and were measuring everything that was easy to measure. At the same time we were not getting any value from collecting all that data. With the approach introduced and facilitated by Bernard Marr we were able to clarify and map our strategy on one piece of paper, identify the key performance questions we as executives want to answer on a regular basis, and design meaningful indicators that will help us answer those questions. For me, we now have performance management Nirvana!
