I just would like to share a new forum/community for Time-Driven Activity-Based Costing at

http://timedrivenabc.com

The idea is similiar to this one for the BSC and of course to create a bridge between companies, consultants, software providers and academics on the TDABC methodology.

I hope you can pass by and contribute with your experience!

Best regards,
Miguel ]]> https://www.bscol.com/community/forum//messageview.cfm?catid=36&threadid=297 2007-11-15T14:19:50 -05.00 Jackie Deem 1 All responses will be kept confidential and I'll be happy to share my findings when completed.

If interested, please email me at deem@nova.edu.

We are a well-established, highly regarded consulting firm which focuses on Strategy Development and Strategic Management for the single strategic business unit. We believe that there is a major consulting market opportunity that can be addressed through establishing an alliance with complementary consulting firms which focus on Balanced Scorecard implementation for small to mid-sized companies.

If you share such a belief and would like to explore partnering, please contact me at ambler@cssp.com.

Thank you,

Tom Ambler ]]> https://www.bscol.com/community/forum//messageview.cfm?catid=36&threadid=280 2007-08-22T10:37:58 -05.00 Melanie MacLean 2 I'm looking for other members who are working on balanced scorecard implementations or programs, who have success or failure stories to share, reviews on current schools of thought, software or training, or any general pearls of wisdom who would like to discuss government (state / province level) or service industry experiences.
We are a government crown corporation that acts as a citizen service delivery window. Anything you'd like to share, I'd be interested.
I am particularly interested if you are located in Atlantic Canada or the Northeastern US.
Thank you for your interest

Where do these fit in to Strategy maps?


Also what about support processes?

Statistical analysis showed that the organizations that reported to have achieved breakthrough results (mean year increase in revenues of 24%) differed vis a vis the organizations that reported to have achieved merely operational or organizational benefits (mean year increase in revenues of 13%) in only a few SFO practices:

1. Strategic priorities repeatedly communicated via multiple media
2. Compensation and incentive system linked to strategic performance
3. Personal development plans aligned to the achievement of strategic results
4. Process management programs linked to strategy
5. Knowledge management processes enable learning and best practice sharing

On the other hand, the three groups ("breakthrough", "operational improvements", "organizational improvements") were found to be statistically similar in the level of their performance concerning other SFO practices (e.g. mobilization, translation of strategy, alignment).
But were they really similar?

The firms that participated in the research by filling the appropriate questionnaires, reported their subjective perceptions of their performance in each SFO practice (self-assessment).

While self-assessments can be useful, we should recognize that in principle, there are --and should be-- objective performance scales relating to each competency (SFO practice).

The issue then is: Does similar subjective perceptions of performance imply similar objective performance? I.e. If A --an excellent organization-- feels that it did an "OK job" in translating strategy and B --a mediocre organization-- feels the same about itself, can we jumb to the conclusion that their objective performance was indeed similar? I.e. that both A and B did in fact an equally good job in translating strategy?

If not, what are the implication for the validity of this research? ]]> https://www.bscol.com/community/forum//messageview.cfm?catid=36&threadid=248 2007-05-21T03:06:18 -05.00 Brian samuel 2

I more troubled with the current situation of our environment. it is continuously deteriorating and we have to move fast. I understand very less work has been done to this direction and world wide mass education is the need of the day. Can someone suggest how best we can spread the awareness. ]]> https://www.bscol.com/community/forum//messageview.cfm?catid=36&threadid=225 2007-03-27T09:43:08 -05.00 mohamed rifaye nazeer ahamed 3

Is there any best practice standard for this concept? or is this a principle that is even valid? ]]>
