How to Achieve Superior Performance and Strategic Success

"What gets measured gets done." It's a business axiom you've heard a thousand times. Unfortunately, the things most companies measure (short-term financial performance and local productivity) don't determine long-term success in a competitive marketplace.

In order to achieve and sustain strategic success via operational excellence, your performance management system must balance customer metrics, business process metrics, internal development metrics, and financial metrics. And, these metrics must be aligned to focus on corporate vision and strategy.

In 1992, Robert Kaplan of Harvard Business School and David Norton of Renaissance Solutions introduced the Balanced Scorecard (BSC), a complement to traditional financial measurement systems that helped companies manage performance and progress. This tool has evolved into a strategic management system that can help you achieve and sustain strategic success as the business environment changes.... [-]
