Balanced Scorecards typically include four areas of strategic focus, including financial sustainability, customer experience, internal processes and structures, and workforce culture, learning, and development. Focusing on these four overarching components gives you a balanced perspective of your organization’s health. It also provides a methodology for breaking down a large-scale vision and strategy into categories and activities that become actionable and measurable. Balanced Scorecards are unique in that they help you visualize in a straightforward manner how an organization’s high-level strategy drives the day-to-day priorities and desired outcomes and the measure of your success along the way.

Strategy teams and business managers that are looking to track the execution of a specific set of activities by the staff under their purview will be better able to do so using the new online Balanced Scorecard template from Praxie. The Balanced Scorecard is a report used by management teams which focuses on the implementation of a business strategy or operational tasks by the employees within a business. This type of report enables a business leader or a strategy team to carefully track and monitor the success of a project over time by ensuring that a team is operating to the best of its abilities. Balanced Scorecard tools also enable business leaders to track the effectiveness of specific activities in an ongoing manner.
