Is the process of moving from the current state to the desired state, by use of available means
the art and science of formulating, implementing, and evaluating cross-functional decisions that enable an organization to achieve its objectives
Strategic management is used synonymously with the term strategic planning, but sometimes it’s part.
The primary benefit of the planning process is the process itself, not a plan. It is essential to put energy and effort into planning your process. The four questions you want to answer: Where are we? Where do we want to be in the future? What part of the status quo do we need to change to get us where we want to be in the future? How do we make it happen? Remember, if you don't know where you want to go it doesn't matter which road you take!
Strategic Management: The Ultimate Goal of Strategic Planning Kathy Brandt
Developing a strategic plan is the first step in leading a strategic organization. The efficacy of the plan is judged not by how many goals you achieve, but in how well you utilize the plan to strategically lead your organization. According to the Balanced Scorecard Institute, strategic organizations implement processes to “systematically coordinate and align resources and actions with mission, vision and strategy.”

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

43. Strategy is Only One Ingredient:
A Balanced Scorecard
Having the “game plan” requires
vision…but there are other
components.
44. Other Critical Factors
Are you a “learning” organization?
• Per Drucker—is dissent encouraged?
• Can you learn from mistakes?
• Are personnel given timely and meaningful
feedback on performance?
• Can you recruit and retain qualified personnel?
• Salary issues
• “Politics”
45. Other Critical Factors II
• Do you have scheduled “customer” feedback
on outcomes and processes?
• Can IT provide the necessary information on
a “need to know basis”?
• Does the reward structure (financial and
“other”) send the signals that foster
productivity?
46. Other Factors III
You need to understand strategy…but…
• It is one of many factors regarding organizational
health
• It may not mean much without the means for
execution
• Staying connected with an ever-changing
environment requires “eternal vigilance”
47. On to the BSC
Per Drucker: Do you have a plan?
• Great…but how do you track performance?
• The dominant performance indicators are financial
• Scarcity applies to all organizations, public, private and non-profit
• We tend to be a short-term oriented culture; the next quarter or year is
what counts
• Financial metrics are easy to design and generally accepted
48. Norton and Kaplan’s Paradigm Shift
• Harvard Business Review article of 1992 may be on of the most
influential in history
• Financials are critical but…
• They are lagging (i.e., rear view)
• They tend to be short-term
• They ultimately reflect a wider range of qualitative factors
(both strategic and tactical)
• Hence the need for a “Balanced Scorecard”
49. So, We Need Balance
• Financials in the non-profit/public sector: tend to
emphasize cost-effectiveness
• Customers: are we listening to needs and wants
• Internal Business Processes: how do we process
people, data, etc., rapidly and cheaply?
• Learning and Growth: Human capital drives success
and adds value
50. Generally Accepted Framework
• Has become the basis of many “dashboards”
• Is not viewed as perfect but certainly plausible
• Forces decision makers to see indicators
outside of the financial box
• Places human capital at the forefront of value
added in an organization
51. Exercise IV:
Take 15 min.
What a balanced scorecard would look like for your
organization?
What are your key performance indicators?
• Financials
• Customers
• Internal Business Processes
• Learning & Growth
