An exemplary behavioural-based controlling project |
|
The ICV's 2015 Controller Award is awarded to RWE AG in Essen. Their interdisciplinary project team under the leadership of Dr Peter Scherpereel, Head of Controlling Generation & Trading, investigated the influence of biases, i.e. mental simplifications, on decision-making processes. While doing so, the team also developed techniques to improve the quality of decisions. The International Controller Association (ICV) bestowed the EUR 5,000 award for this innovative and exemplary change project on behavioural-based controlling at the 40th Congress of Controllers on 20 April. The project involved taking behavioural-based aspects of controlling, which have been dealt with until now primarily in theory, and transferring them into actual decision-making processes.
