The Hackett Group, an Answerthink company, has launched the Hackett Performance Network, an open-access leadership community for Sales, General and Administrative executives in the finance, IT, HR, and procurement functions. Membership is free to qualified executives and professionals. The Hackett Performance Network offers access to research metrics and insights to help members achieve world-class performance and improve efficiency and effectiveness.

Participants receive monthly updates from Hackett, including detailed explorations of Hackett performance metrics and select best practice research insights. They can also participate in select Hackett Webcasts, including those offering CPE credits for qualified finance professionals.

In addition, members can participate in and view results from Hackett Performance Studies, enabling them to compare their company’s performance to average and top performing organizations. Studies currently underway address Finance Shared Services; IT Business Value Management; Compliance; and Planning and Budgeting.

“With the Hackett Performance Network, we’re offering executives a valuable and easy way to understand what our best practice research offers, and begin to benefit from it,” said Hackett Chief Research Officer Michel Janssen. “The only way to make real sustainable improvements is to know where you are, where you’re going, and how to get there. That’s precisely the information our research offers, and it has proven its value at literally thousands of the world’s largest and most successful companies. Whether you’re looking to simply cut costs or are truly focused on being a better strategic partner to your business, there’s no better foundation for change.”
