Business Planning using the Balanced Scorecard

One day workshop

Overview

It is sometimes said that a consultant 'borrows your watch to tell you the time' and then charges you a high fee for the service! Business Planning for teams and smaller companies is much easier than you think. This workshop gives you guided and facilitated advice on drafting a one-page, crystal clear and 'SMART' targeted business strategy that you can easily communicate with colleagues and partners, based on the 'Balanced Scorecard' model.

 

What you will learn:

• How to decide on strategies for achieving financial, customer, operational and development targets
• How to measure and monitor your progress
• How to communicate and delegate the plan
• How to prioritise your resources
• How to use the plan for decision-making

 

Workshop content:

• Business Plans - aims, strategies and tactics
• Establishing key outcomes - financial, customer, operational, learning and growth
• Establishing initiatives, measures and targets
• Developing strategies
• Communicating the plan - the 'one page' business plan, communicating progress
• Monitoring progress - delegating responsibilities
• 'Bullet-proofing' - dealing with the unexpected and the unknown

 

Who should attend:

This course is particularly suitable for teams together, but would also be beneficial for directors and senior managers. This approach to business planning works very well with fee-earning partnerships such as dentists, accountants, solicitors and estate agents.
