41. Next: Moving Beyond the Company’s Overall Scorecard
42. Departmental and Personal ScorecardsEach department develops its own
scorecard based on the
company’s overall scorecard.Each employee develops his or her
scorecard based on the company’s
and department’s scorecard.
43. Departmental and Personal ScorecardsScorecards must be closely aligned with
overall company goals and objectives.Each objective must be aligned.Each measure must be aligned.
44. Each PerspectiveMust be AddressedSet objectives for each perspective.Set basis for measurement for each objective.This allows managers and employees to
focus on the success of each perspective.It also keeps them from focusing on
one perspective while neglecting another.
45. Implementing theBalanced ScorecardThe push to implement must
come from top management.Managers must buy in.It takes 15 to 36 months
in large organizations.
46. Possible Pitfalls of the Balanced ScorecardSenior management not committedOne senior manager tries to build the scorecard aloneScorecard responsibilities don’t filter downThe solution is overdesigned,
or scorecard treated as a one-time eventThe balanced scorecard is treated as a systems projectAnthony Atkinson, Robert Kaplan, S. Mark Yong

coordinated using the balanced scorecard
meaningful priorities can be set.Resources allocated accordingly
64. 4. Feedback and LearningExpands on the traditional financial focusCan monitor results from three more perspectivesCan evaluate strategy in light of
performance in all four areasModify strategy to reflect real-time learning

66. The Balanced ScorecardThe balanced scorecard is more than
a performance measurement technique.Innovative CEOs used the balance scorecard
not only to clarify and communicate strategy,
but also to manage strategy.They are using the measurement focus
of the scorecard to accomplish
critical management processes.
67. The Balanced ScorecardClarify and translate vision and strategyCommunicate and link strategic
objectives and measuresPlan, set targets, and align
strategic initiativesEnhance strategic feedback and learningKaplan/Norton
