Balanced scorecard
From strategy to action.
With the balanced scorecard, BlueJam turns the strategy into connected objectives, indicators, targets and initiatives. The strategy map shows how the organization will create results, while the governance rhythm drives the delivery.
Used by organizations with complex strategies
Challenges
When the scorecard becomes the goal.
The balanced scorecard is a system for strategy execution. Even so, it often ends up as a collection of indicators, detached from the strategy and from day-to-day operations.
Measurement without strategic logic
Many indicators. Unclear direction.
When indicators are not connected to strategic objectives and cause-and-effect relationships, the scorecard shows results without explaining what drives them.
Too many indicators
The balance turns into measurement overload.
When everything is measured, attention drifts away from the few results and drivers that are decisive for the strategy.
A break between strategy and operations
The strategy map stops at the top level.
When objectives and initiatives are not translated to units and teams, the strategy has little consequence for operational plans, resource use and priorities.
Solution
A living system for strategy execution.
BlueJam connects strategy maps and scorecards to initiatives, units, operational plans and resource use in one continuous governance process.
