...Balanced Score-card to create Corporate Synergies By Robert S Kaplan & David P Norton, Harvard Business School Press, 2006 Introduction Most large organizations are divided into business units. The challenge is to coordinate the activities of these units and leverage their skills for the benefit of the organization as a whole Alignment is multidimensional in scope, involving financial synergies, cross selling of products and services to deliver unique solutions to customers and sharing of knowledge and expertise across the organization. Alignment needs to be planned and executed carefully to maximize shareholder value. Generating Synergy When an organization aligns the activities of its various business and support units, it creates additional sources of value in various ways. Corporate financial synergy revolves around issues such as where to invest, where to harvest, how to balance risk and how to create an investor brand. Customer synergy means enhancing customer relationships by offering a range of complementary products and services from different business units. Internal process synergies can be created by generating economies of scale in activities such as procurement, logistics and infrastructure. Learning and growth synergies can be generated by developing and sharing critical intangible assets including people, technology, culture and leadership. Despite various innovations in organization design, there is nothing like the best structure to balance the tension...

...Balance Score Card (BSC) An active and engaged board is an essential part of shaping and executing a successful strategy. Followings are the primary responsibilities of corporate board of directors: 1. Approve and monitor the enterprise’s strategy, created and formulated by CEO and Executive Leadership Team 2. Approve major financial decisions 3. Select the chief executive officer, evaluate the CEO and senior executive team, ensure executive succession plans 4. Provide counsel and support to the CEO 5. Ensure compliance However, board of directors often fall short in carrying out their five responsibilities due to limited time they have available, and the inadequate information provided to them. The board members, burdened by limited time and limited information, can participate in a more effective and efficient governance process by implementing Balanced Scorecard program. The program starts with an Enterprise Scorecard enabling the board to become more informed about the enterprise’s strategy so that it can perform better its responsibilities. The board can also create a Board Scorecard, which defines its primary outcomes, board processes, and skills, information, and meeting dynamics for more effective governance. Finally, executive scorecards enable the Board to evaluate the performance of each senior executive and his or her succession plans. Enterprise Balanced Scorecard Enterprise Scorecard describes the strategy of the organization, including strategic...

...5 Performance measurement Nonprofit organizations need to view revenue as a resource needed to achieve their missions. Obviously, revenues must exceed expenses over the long-term or an NPO will not survive. —Glenn Rowe Key Topics: balanced score card, customer feedback, competitive comparison, strategic objectives, blue ocean strategy W hat makes an organization “good” at what it does? Or, as Jim Collins (2001) would ask, “What makes an organization great?” Most would acknowledge that accountability, effectiveness, and achievement of desired performance outcomes are minimal requirements for any organization’s success. These requirements demand a measurement system relative to an organization’s mission, vision, values, and strategic plan. This chapter discusses methods for establishing such systems. In doing so, we echo Worth’s (2012) concern that “nonprofit managers must be committed to performance measurement but should not become overly focused on it to the detriment of delivering their mission’s programs” (p. 157). Performance measurement Process Before engaging in performance measurement, it is vital to understand the level and scope of the process. Measurement can be conducted for effectiveness or performance at the program/project or organizational level. Effectiveness relates to achieving the mission, while performance is a broader concept that considers financial results and other variables related to the overall organization. Once the scope and level of...

...Implementation in Organizations The tool has become a weapon for organizations to identify the pressure points, conflicting interests, objectives setting, prioritization of objectives, planning and budgeting. The four main important steps that need to be taken care of are – 1. Translating the Vision It is to be remembered that the vision of any organization should be understood by each and every employee of the organization. If it is understood by the top management only, then it is definite that the organization will fail to realize its goals. Hence, before starting with the strategic implementation process, the organizations needs to be clear about the reason for its existence, where it wants to see itself after a certain number of years and properly decide its business definition. The managers should build a consensus around the organization’s vision and strategy. The strategies, in fact, emanate from the vision and mission of the company which means that a linkage is formed between the strategies of the different business units and the vision of the organization. The lofty statements must be translated into an integrated set of objectives and measures. Thus, by using this tool, the overall strategic objectives for the company gets clarified which helps to achieve consensus across different business units on the overall strategic objectives for the company.

...A Balanced Scorecard Brenda Rivers HTT 220 May 15, 2010 Simone Davis Made popular in 1996 by Kaplan and Norton, the balanced scorecard acts as an organizational report card that varies from business to business (Nyheim, McFadden & Connelly 2005). When assessing performance companies do not use single measurements, but rather a set of measurements which takes into the stakeholders, employees, guests, owners, supplier’s investors and franchisees. The goal of a comprehensive balanced scorecard allows management to monitor measurements such as financial ratios, net profit, revenues, and budget variances. Key indicators or critical success factors provide information across vast categories including; operational statistics, competitive activity, internal factors, employee measures, satisfaction ratings, cost savings, turnovers, guest perspectives and supplier relationships (Nyheim, McFadden & Connolly 2005). A balanced scorecard also provides strategic objectives to those in charge of the implementation and fulfillment of these duties. The scorecard provides a benchmark to measure and compare results against other results previously taken (Nyheim, McFadden & Connolly 2005). Other information represented on a balanced scorecard includes; environmental issues such as energy consumption and recycling programs, external factors including research and development, training and innovation...

...international group of representatives from the FASB and six other national and international accounting standard setting bodies suggests that iease accounting should require alt lease contracts to be capitalized as assets and liabilities (McGregor 1996). This suggestion has also been made by the Association for Investment Management and Research (AMIR) in a December 1993 white paper. A previous Horizons paper by Imhoff et al. (1991) illustrated how to constructively capitalize operating leases. However, this prior study focused exclusively on the balance sheet effects for a single period, and assumed the income statement effects were negligible. The current study cites evidence that suggests the income statement effects may be material, and illustrates how to estimate the impact of constructive capitalization of operating leases on both operating income (before interest expense) and net income. Understanding both the income statement and balance sheet consequences will likely become increasingly important as the sentiment that operating leases should be capitalized continues to gain favor with users and standard setters.

Latar Belakang Konsep Balanced Scorecard selanjutnya akan disingkat BSC. BSC adalah pendekatan terhadap strategi manajemen yang dikembangkan oleh Drs.Robert Kaplan (Harvard Business School) and David Norton pada awal tahun 1990. BSC berasal dari dua kata yaitu balanced (berimbang) dan scorecard (kartu skor). Balanced (berimbang) berarti adanya keseimbangan antara performance keuangan dan non-keuangan, performance jangka pendek dan performance jangka panjang, antara performance yang bersifat internal dan performance yang bersifat eksternal. Sedangkan scorecard (kartu skor) yaitu kartu yang digunakan untuk mencatat skor performance seseorang. Kartu skor juga dapat digunakan untuk merencanakan skor yang hendak diwujudkan oleh seseorang di masa depan. Mula-mula BSC digunakan untuk memperbaiki sistem pengukuran kinerja eksekutif. Awal penggunaannya kinerja eksekutif diukur hanya dari segi keuangan. Kemudian berkembang menjadi luas yaitu empat perspektif, yang kemudian digunakan untuk mengukur kinerja organisasi...

(suite 2) LE TABLEAU DE BORD PROSPECTIF (Balanced scorecard) 2°) Face aux faiblesses de certains tableaux de bords actuels, le balanced scorecard (tableau de bord prospectif) 2-1 principales critiques portant sur certains tableaux « traditionnels ». Le manque de réactivité L’obtention rapide des informations composant l’indicateur n’est pas une garantie suffisante, il faut sélectionner des indicateurs qui permettent d'anticiper les situations en ciblant avec précision les actions de progrès d'un service (d'une activité) ou en identifiant les causes de dysfonctionnement. Il faut ensuite diffuser rapidement les résultats afin de générer des actions d'amélioration, au minimum dans un délai qui soit compatible avec les actions à mener. Par exemple : Dans une entreprise qui travaille par affaire, la connaissance des ventes facturées est une information trop tardive. Par contre la connaissance du nombre de devis réalisés chaque semaine et du nombre de devis transformés en commande fermes est une donnée essentielle. Un nombre de devis qui baisse permet d'agir rapidement sur les différents leviers d'actions que constituent l'activité des commerciaux, le niveau des prix des devis,... Le nombre de devis transformés en commande permet une mesure de l'efficacité des commerciaux et aussi une anticipation des taux de chargement des ateliers de production par exemple.
