"I really love the dashboards. For me, I'm quite a visual person and I love visual representations. The system gets its name from the notion that strategy Cascades from a high organization down to functional units and various strategic areas and projects. It makes it very easy to navigate the strategy because of the logical way that it is all structured. The setup time was fairly minimal; the time it takes for new people to learn how to use the system is negligible; it's very simple and straightforward. It's just great to finally have that representation of the linkage between the university strategy, the library strategy and all the projects and tasks that we're working on."
“Before implementing Cascade, the placement of our goals was all over the place!”
“The big shift is from everyone being enthusiastic & doing lots of work to that same thing, but in a structured way, inputting information into one place.”
"The cascading relationship of strategic objectives, goals & activities, and the ability to link them to multiple objectives, with easy tools to track progress & produce reports. It keeps our senior team focused on the big picture."
