Editor's Notes
- Tie Actions and expenses to mission-serving strategies.
- http://www.flickr.com/photos/phploveme/2997473310/Using the balanced scorecard, we can identify the areas we need to plan for. The basic concept is that you can’t make any one particular area work without investment in the others. Especially note that one of the areas is Innovation and Learning, which we might also call training. You can’t NOT invest in training. It’s vital, especially when it comes to technology. In other words, you can invest like crazy in a new system to better interface with your clients, but unless you invest in training your staff to use it, it’s useless.
- So these are the kinds of items we want to put into a plan, but they are not the plan itself. What goes into a plan?
