The Balanced Scorecard

• The Balanced Scorecard is a strategic planning and management method used to: • align business activities to a vision and strategy of an organisation • improve internal and external communications • monitor organisational performance against strategic goals.

• The design of Balanced Scorecard concerns itself with: • the identification of a small number of financial and non-financial

measures referred to as Perspectives• setting targets for the measures and then • measuring them on a regular basis to determine success or failure.
