About the course
The concept of the Balanced Scorecard is not difficult or new but despite it being around for some time, organisations still struggle to develop, deploy and manage a small number of KPIs which truly reflect the organisations strategy. Balanced Scorecard is still relevant today - if you use correctly.

You'll also learn how best to deploy the Balanced Scorecard throughout your organisation, and how to implement the improvement plans.
