The Balanced Scorecard

Managers today need to look past traditional view points in determining the success of their company's strategy. One such approach is known as the balanced scorecard. This approach involves looking past just one measure and involves taking a comprehensive view of the organization. This is a useful tool for new managers to understand and add to their "toolbox" of management expertise.

The balanced scorecard give managers a quick and comprehensive view of organizational performance using four primary indicators: customer satisfaction, internal processes, innovation and improvement activities, and financial measures. This "scorecard" is visually represented on a strategy map.
