Dear All,
I am working as Hr-Assistant in one of the Software companies of Pune.
I am assigned a task of Getting knowledge about Balanced Score Card and ways to implement it in our organization.
I got basic information about this topic through the internet. However I am not satisfied with it.
I want to know:
1) How is it implemented in a company like ours?
2) What are the dimension I need to think about before carrying out such a study?
3) What data do i need to collect for the study?
4) What are the steps involved?, etc
It will be very helpful if i get an e Book on this topic.
Can anyone please help me with this?
Thank you,

Hi Anjali,
We recently implemented the BSC in our unit. It was driven by a cross functional team (HR, Quality & Operations). The brief details were
a) Defining / Identifying the mission, vision, values and goals of the organisation.
b) Defining a strategy map on what are the strategic objectives of the organisation that they want to focus on while they plan to achieve their goals
c) Without the above 2, a BSC can really be misguided.. SO next few steps are on converting the objectives into a BSC.
c.1) Define measures that will tell us that the strategic objectives have been met. Ensure measures are lead (checking deployment of initiatives that will help achieve the objectives) and lag (the degree of success of achieving the objective)
c2) setting targets for the measures along with unit & frequency.
d) actually identify the initiatives and define those in detail.
e) if this is done by CFTs, initiatives across the organisation are defined and fundings happen well.
We also went for a BSC training from QAI. Please go to their website and see if you can pull some case studies. BSC books from Kaplan are by far the best. Pl read alignment, strategy maps and the first book.. Those can be like bibles during (and before) the process.
BSC is not easy to do. Its even tougher to sustain focus to review it repeatedly. The success is really only seen after a year of implementing one.. If all initiatives were met and measured as planned and the lag measures for the objectives have met their targets - you actually have achieved what you set out to do..
We took quite a lot of time to complete steps a to d (simply because key leadership people need to give time for this). But once done, we atleast have a leadership team that believes in common goals and are focussed for growth.
All the best!
