2. The Strategy Map INTRAFOCUS
• A Strategy Map is a diagram that describes how a
company or organisation can create value by linking
strategic objectives in a cause and effect relationship.
• It is based on the four Balanced Scorecard Perspectives:
Financial, Customer, Internal Processes and Learning &
Growth.
• The key element of the Strategy Map is that it is linked to
the ‘scorecards’ that monitor the progress towards the
Strategic Objectives.
• The ‘scorecards’ will include: metrics, targets for the
metrics and strategic initiatives to drive performance
towards achieving the objectives.
3. The Balanced Scorecard INTRAFOCUS
• The Balanced Scorecard is a strategic planning and
management method used to:
• align business activities to a vision and strategy of an organisation
• improve internal and external communications
• monitor organisational performance against strategic goals.
• The design of Balanced Scorecard concerns itself with:
• the identification of a small number of financial and non-financial
measures referred to as Perspectives
• setting targets for the measures and then
• measuring them on a regular basis to determine success or failure.
