    Dear Sir,

    I am confused between “measure fixation” vs tunnel vision.

    Thanks for your help

    Regards,
    Joanna.

    I’ve always thought they were nearly the same!

    I think measurement fixation is having lots and lots of measures – almost for the sake of it.

    Tunnel vision is not seeing beyond the measurements.

    Dear Ken, I can’t understand the difference b/n many of the performance measurement related problems…it seems the same for me & I am not sure why the same concents are splitted into d/t things…tunnel vision, measure fixation, misrepresentation, gaming,…etc.

    It’s not my list – it is one that is contained in many standard texts.

    Misrepresentation = eg telling lies about performance to make you look good.

    Gaming = eg sabotaging a rival
