ABSTRACT

Balanced Scorecard (BSC) is a management and control method that connects short-term operational control with long-term strategy through selected key performance indicators. It helps organizations focus their efforts on strategic goals by integrating both financial and non-financial measures. A crucial aspect of the BSC is the linkage between strategic planning and operational budgeting, ensuring the strategy is effectively implemented in daily activities. For successful strategy execution, five principles are recommended: commitment from top management, translating strategy into specific goals and initiatives, applying the BSC at all organizational levels, aligning individual and corporate goals, and maintaining strategy as a continuous improvement process.
