Using a Balanced Scorecard for Financial Stability

Course Summary

In today’s society, it isn’t just income and profit that makes a business successful. Now, lots of merit is placed upon a company’s external reputation from their consumers, their knowledge of the wider market and competitors, or even their reputation as an employer. These things, alongside finances, equally help the company to grow its reach and turnover.

However, there are challenges that come with these new performance metrics. It’s easy to monitor profits and losses to understand a company’s success. But it’s a little more difficult to monitor intangible performance and assets using data or typical key performance indicators.

To resolve this, businesses can use scorecards to prove their positive performance and flag any potential problems to work on for continuous improvement.

A balanced scorecard can focus on recruitment, organisational development, future goals, strategic planning, prioritisation, and automation. The scorecards will show your progress throughout any changes and projects that you complete and will act as a real-time record of your achievements as a business.
