“Political leaders should be given scorecard similar to KPI”
Sri Lankan political leaders should be given a scorecard on their performance similar to the (KPI) system that is evident in the private sector.
This was opined by President of CMI Sri Lanka Chapter and Senior Professor in Management at PIM, Prof Ajantha Dharmasiri at the launch of the much-awaited Global CEO Forum 2023 under the overarching theme of “Leadership in Turbulent Times,” which will be held on September 21 at Hotel Galadari.
Such KPI systems where a politician’s performance is evaluated and they are being made accountable for their actions are evident in some of the developed countries. “Sri Lanka should try to adopt a slimier scheme where the public will be able to find out if the politician stood up to potential.”
Prof. Dharmasiri also said that today Sri Lanka is facing a leadership crisis in the private sector due to many issues (including brain drain).

Prakash, President of the Indian CEO Forum, Colombo; Fang Jiadu, Chairman of the Sri Lanka Overseas Chinese Association; and Marie Antonia von Schönburg, Chief Delegate of the Delegation of German Industry and Commerce in Sri Lanka.
