The dashboard - strategies piloting and development entity tool

Abstract

The dashboard is a managerial tool used by companies in different industry sectors. The Dashboard is an instrument designed to synthesize the information needed for driving, while being a piloting tool for the enterprise, allowing managers to have in real-time a synthetic view of key business and business indicators for making decisions within their competence. The present research highlights some conceptual moments about the vision of several researchers on the dashboard concept. Because the Dashboard is often confused with the Balanced Score Card, the differences between these two management leadership tools have been elucidated and specified. Also here are reflected the requirements and conditions for drawing up the dashboard, as well as the stages of drawing up the dashboard. The study was conducted using the knowledge base built by the research of the specialized literature in the field. JEL: G320, M41.
