In a world of rapid and unpredictable change the problem with strategic planning is that if
you follow your plan through to the end you will get exactly what you used to want. What you
need is a framework for planning and implementing a strategy that is agile enough to adapt to a
dynamic environment but focused enough to deliver. That framework is the Dynamic Balanced
Scorecard. The original Balanced Scorecard system has proven the most popular successful and
enduring framework for strategy execution over the last 25 years. Comprising a Strategy Map and
a scorecard of KPIs targets and initiatives the framework helped organizations distil a
strategy into actionable components and measure progress towards a strategic vision while also
implementing and monitoring the actions that drove change. However for all its success the
Balanced Scorecard system now needs to evolve for the digital age. Until now building the
system rolling it out enterprise-wide and adapting it to external changes has been a lengthy
process. While the fundamental principles of the system are still sound and relevant it needs
to become nimbler and more responsive. The book provides a step-by-step guide to agile strategy
management: from formulation to implementation to learning and adapting. For each of the steps
the book explains how Dynamic Balanced Scorecards fit for the digital age are built and
deployed.
