But as Michael Lewis describes in Moneyball, the Oakland Athletics discovered that the metric the teams scouts used to choose players had nothing to do with whether those players would score runs. They had been measuring the wrong thing, and executives may be making the same mistake. Theory and empirical research show only a shaky connection between value creation and two of the most popular performance measures: earnings per share (EPS) growth and sales growth. Yet executives cling to those metrics because they are overconfident in their intuition, they misattribute the causes of events, and they do not escape the pull of the status quo. The most useful statistics reliably reveal cause and effect. They have two defining characteristics: They are persistent, showing that the outcome of a given action at one time will be similar to the outcome of the same action at another time, and they are predictivethat is, there is a causal relationship between the action the statistic measures and the desired outcome. To choose the right statistics, you must define your governing objective, assess the financial and nonfinancial drivers of that objective, and figure out which employee activities support those drivers.
