Typical Strategy Map - Click image to enlarge.

Many managers and executives have heard of Balanced Scorecard, a methodology which came out of pioneering work by Kaplan & Norton at Harvard Business School in the early 1990's. It is without doubt one of the most powerful tools in the manager's toolbox, for articulating, communicating, implementing and executing strategy throughout an organisation. And it can be used by any kind of organisation. It is currently used in Business, NFP, Government, Academic, and Military organisations worldwide.

The picture shows a typical strategy map created by ASVP Group using methodology developed over more than fifteen years of strategic planning. Creating a picture of your strategy enables you to see clear cause and effect relationships between objectives. It also makes the job of communicating strategy to all team-members much, much easier. A picture is worth a thousand words. How true!
