Why are managers more effective with AIM?
AIM gives managers a double loop approach, explained and promoted by Peter Senge in his bestselling book The Learning Organization. The common management review and adjust activity is supplemented with the ability to precisely predict performance, before it occurs. Knowing what will happen allows managers to avoid poor performance by making small, incremental changes. This approach is also much easier on the organization. Changes are small but constant. Without models to predict performance, organizations are forced to wait until the corrective change is large scale and tumultuous.
