Getting more from your balanced scorecard
Making it happen – best practices in balanced scorecards
The Balanced Scorecard is a highly effective strategic management and planning tool, popular across a wide range of industries and organisations. Using a Balanced Scorecard gives an organisation the ability to align operational activities with strategy, and measure performance in a more meaningful way than traditional financial reporting. Implementing a Balanced Scorecard system across your organisation is, however, a rigorous process, and to get the most from the Balanced Scorecard, intensive ongoing management is necessary. This comprehensive one-day study group will give attendees the practical skills and know-how to successfully manage the Balanced Scorecard within their organisation. A team of experienced professionals will present four interactive micro-workshops, covering:
- Engaging your organisation at the operational, management and executive levels
- Adapting the Balanced Scorecard to your organisation’s specific needs
- Simplifying and streamlining the data collection process for better reporting
- Clearly defining and communicating organisational strategy using a strategy map
