Nerve center of an enterprise
The term “scorecard” signifies quantified performance measures and “balanced” signifies the system is balanced between:
Short-term and long term objectives
Financial and non-financial measures
Lagging and leading indicators
Internal and external performance perspectives
The concept of the balanced scorecard was first touted in the Harvard Business Review in 1992 in a paper written by Robert S Kaplan and David P Norton.
The paper introduced the idea of focusing on human issues as well as financial ones, and measuring performance across a much wider spectrum than businesses had done before.
Kaplan and Norton published their ideas in full in The Balanced Scorecard: Translating Strategy into Action in 1996 and it became a business bestseller.
The balanced scorecard is centered on four performance metrics or perspectives:
Customers
Internal processes
Financial
Learning and growth
When implemented properly, each one of these perspectives contains four subparts consisting of
Objectives
Measures
Targets
Initiatives
This document discusses key elements of succession planning including:
1) Assessment of key positions and identification of key talent, development of development plans, and monitoring and review of progress.
2) Getting the whole team working together to achieve defined and measurably improving results through determining strategy, setting objectives, improving recruitment and training, and implementing coaching and appraisal systems.
3) Including management overviews at key stages to ensure consistency and develop team spirit and synergy.

Influence of Career Development on Retention of Employees in Private Univers...publication11
Retention of employees in universities is paramount for producing quantity and quality of human capital for
economic development of a country. Turnover has persistently remained high in private universities despite
employee attrition by institutions, which can disrupt organizational stability, quality of education and reputation.
Objectives of the study included performance appraisal, staff training and promotion practices on retention of
employees. Correlational research design and quantitative research were adopted. Total population was 85 with a
sample of 70 which was selected through simple random sampling. Data collection was through questionnaire and
analysed using multiple linear regression with help of SPSS. Results showed that both performance appraisal
(t=1.813, P=.076, P>.05) and staff training practices (t=-1.887, P=.065, P>.05) were statistical insignificant while
promotion practices (t=3.804, P=.000, P<.05) was statistically significantly influenced retention of employees.
The study concluded that performance appraisal and staff training has little relationship with employee retention
whereas promotion practices affect employee retention in private universities. Therefore, it was recommended
that organizations renovate performance appraisal and staff training practices while promoting employees
annually, review salary structure, ensure there is no biasness and promotion practices should be based on meritocracy. The findings could benefit management of private universities, Government and researchers.

2. What is a Balanced Scorecard?
The Balanced Scorecard is a strategic planning and
management system used to align business activities
to the vision and strategy of the organization by
monitoring performance against strategic goals.
3. Balanced Scorecard Concept
• Was first published in 1992 by Kaplan and Norton, a
book followed in 1996.
• Traditional performance measurement that only
focus on external accounting data are obsolete.
• The approach is to provide 'balance' to the financial
perspective.

17. Perspectives are Interrelated

necessary for good financial results
• Good financial results make financing
improvements possible
18. Overall Concepts
• Not just a set of measures
– Measures must relate to strategy
• Critical success factors
– Measures are interrelated
• Must understand how the perspectives influence each other
19. Overall Concepts
• Not a quick process
– Implementation requires
• Thought
• Analysis
• Data-gathering
• Time
20. Overall Concepts
• Thought
– What is our strategy?
– What is critical to implementing the strategy?
– How can we measure our progress?
21. Overall Concepts
• Analysis
– What are the linkages between functions?
– What drives the achievement of goals?

– Never-ending process
24. 4 Original Business Perspectives
Adapted from The Balanced Scorecard by Kaplan & Norton
The Balanced
Scorecard model
suggests that we
view the
organization from 4
perspectives.
Then Develop
metrics, collect data
and analyze it
relative to each of
these perspectives
25. 4 Business Perspectives Questions
• Financial
– What must we do to create sustainable economic value?
• Internal Business Process
– To satisfy our stakeholders, what must be our levels of
productivity, efficiency, and quality?
• Learning and Growth
– How does our employee performance management system,
including feedback to employees, support high performance?
• Customer
– What do our customers require from us and how are we doing
according to those requirements?
27. Key Implementation Success Factors
• Obtaining executive sponsorship and commitment
• Involving a broad base of leaders, managers and
employees in scorecard development
• Choose the right Scorecard Champion
• Beginning interactive (two-way) communication first
• Viewing the scorecard as a long-term journey rather
than a short-term project
• Getting outside help if needed

30. The Road to Disaster
• Senior management not committed
– No one else will be either
• Lack of consensus
– Lack of commitment
31. The Road to Disaster
• Consultants
– Good
• Provide needed expertise
– Bad
• Take over the project
• Consensus, commitment of employees is lost
32. The Road to Disaster
• Failure to communicate
– Employees don’t understand:
• Strategy
• Their roles
• Importance of the scorecard measures
33. The Road to Disaster
• Carve it in stone
– It won’t be perfect, ever
• Must evolve
– Delay implementation until perfect
• See above
34. The Scorecard as a Change Agent
• Four steps
– Translating the vision into action
– Communicating and linking
– Business planning
– Feedback and learning
35. Translating the Vision
• Strategy must be reduced to a set of
objectives and measures which can be
operationalized
– “We want to be the best” won’t do
36. Communicating and Linking
• Corporate strategy must be communicated to
all levels
– Lower levels must have objectives linked to
corporate objectives
37. Business Planning
• Integrate the financial plan with the business
plan
– Use the scorecard to allocate resources to critical
activities
• Avoids the short-term spending mentality
38. Feedback and Learning
• Monitor short-term results to determine if
progress is being made toward long-term
objectives
– May need to refine measures, activities,
objectives, even strategy
