BSC - In practice!
Translating the vision:
• What are we trying to achieve through the vision?
Communicating and linking
• Does each business unit understand its role and how does their individual
goals tie into the organization’s score card?
Business planning
• Is organization’s budget and other processes aligned with the strategic plan? –
bring strategy and budget together to achieve the goals
Feedback and learning
• Did we achieve our goals? If not then why?
Benefits of using BSC
It helps to balance operations between financial and non-financial aspects
Build the company’s competencies in a systematic way
 Communicate the organization’s strategy to stakeholders and customers
Track only what matters
Link performance to compensation
Criticisms of the BSC
• It requires lots of time and planning sessions to layout what matters for
your organization
• Can be challenging for smaller companies to use – if they are still
struggling to find what matters
• It can be challenging to bring everyone on board to use the scorecard
Key Learning & Conclusion
• The tool provides a holistic approach for obtaining a balance in an organization
• For start-ups and emerging companies the BSC might not be applicable until
companies learn about what matters
• By its nature, it helps an organization to align its processes and focus on achieving
long-term goals
