2. We interviewed Balanced
Scorecard experts and asked
their opinion:
“Should only top managers
and CEOs use it? Should it
be used company-wide?
Should BSC be
implemented in all
departments or, for
instance, only in HR?”

Opinions from Balanced Scorecard experts
“For the BSC to be effective in
facilitating the execution of strategy,
it needs to be cascaded throughout
the organization. Cascading requires
the participation of managers at all
levels of the organization to translate
the strategy and articulate the
relevance of strategic objectives to
each department, team and
individual. Cascading can and should
result in the alignment (or
connectivity) of the corporate,
departmental, and individual levels of
the organization. It is important to
remember that strategy is
communicated from top to bottom
(executives to frontline employees)
and that execution begins with the
individual”.
Henry Killackey, Jr., Managing Partner
and Educational Services Manager at
Global Institute for Management
“The Balanced Scorecard is for
everyone in the organization.
This means that the Balanced
Scorecard should be cascaded
to all departments/business
units and teams – both
operating and support units.”.
Sandy Richardson, President
and Managing Consultant at
Strategy Focused Business
Solutions Inc.
“Clearly it is easier to justify the
cost of Balanced Scorecard
design for a senior team... but in
sufficiently large organizations,
similar value from better
decision-making can justify
developing the Balanced
Scorecard for lower-level
management teams”.
Gavin Lawrie, Managing Director
2GC Active Management.
