The challenge the Balanced Scorecard addresses: the gap between strategy and execution<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>All organisations \u2013 public and private alike \u2013 produce ambitious strategic plans. Yet, according to Kaplan &amp; Norton,<br \/>\n<b>70 to 90%<\/b> of these strategies fail, not because of poor design, but due to the absence of a<br \/>\n<b>rigorous execution system<\/b>.<br \/>\nThe <b>Balanced Scorecard (BSC)<\/b> provides such a system: it translates vision into objectives, indicators, targets and<br \/>\ninitiatives, creating a coherent architecture to steer performance and transformation.<\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Read the full article: <\/span><\/i><b><i><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Why the BSC Remains the Most Reliable Method for Executing Strategy<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3><b>2.

Institutionalising the methodology: the key to its sustainability<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>One of the key lessons observed across hundreds of BSC organisations is that <b>the methodology only creates value when it is<br \/>\ninstitutionalised<\/b>.
