How do you improve your company using a strategy map?
Every manager, director, or consultant knows the importance of a well thought-out and thoroughly implemented strategy. Of course, you’re no different. But in practice, it turns out that the desired results and margins don’t follow suit.
How can you do better?
Start by visualizing your strategy using a strategy map.
What is a strategy map?
A strategy map breaks down your company’s strategy into building blocks. It’s an important tool that helps translate the strategy into action. It’s also a useful tool for analyzing important information.
The power of a strategy map
The strategy map as a whole displays the company strategy. By visually balancing the various elements of the strategy, you can quickly see the most critical processes and their underlying relationships. This gives you insight into their influence on the company’s goals and objectives, and a deeper understanding of the business model.
How can a strategy map help?
The map is very well-suited to changing the strategy in times of necessity. With scenario planning, you assume alternative strategies in the strategy map. Carefully examining the critical processes in the map’s building blocks gives a clear view of the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
What else can a strategy map be used for?
The strategy map can also be used effectively as an aid in the information analysis for the development of a performance management system or the implementation of a Business Intelligence solution.
