4、ce it was introduced in the early 1990s. But despite (or perhaps because of) this,little is known about what kind of organisations use Balanced Scorecard , what they useit for, and how useful it is in practice.This survey collected information about the answers to these questions.Who participated?We
5、ll informed managers, in corporateor staff roles: a profile that helps ushave confidence in the quality ofresponses provided. Over 50% declared they were “very”knowledgeable concerning theBalanced Scorecard - 30% said theywere “extremely” knowledgeable. Over two-thirds worked in theheadquarters of t
6、heir organisation. Only 18% were in a functional role.How did the survey work?A simple questionnaire developed from the survey tool used in 2GCs 2009 survey. Thequestionnaire publicised in February 2010 through various methods to people interested inor working with corporate Balanced Scorecards.The
7、questionnaire was made available via a web-based tool, and as a printable documentthat could be completed and mailed or FAXed back to 2GC. Each version had identicalstructure and questions. Respondents from 50 organisations participated. Therespondents were self-selecting.Why did 2GC do this survey?
8、We think that learning more about the answers to these questions will improve the use andunderstanding of the Balanced Scorecard and also help us do our work better. 2GC Limited, 20102GC Balanced Scorecard Usage Survey 2010 - Summary of FindingsOther18%3Participating OrganisationsTransport/Utilities

12、senior management teams is perhapsexplained by considering the decision making process required to choose to develop a BalancedScorecard . Designing and implementing a strategic Balanced Scorecard consumes managementteam time and resources. The more senior the team, the easier it is for the decision
13、 to be made toallocate these resources. In small and medium sized organisations, this required decision makingprocess may be easier to execute.

34、Usage Survey 2010 - Summary of Findings8Conclusions / ObservationsAs last year, the survey shows that Balanced Scorecard is a useful management tool. Atypical Balanced Scorecard has between 20 and 30 measures, is based on relatively moderndesign principles, is one of several Balanced Scorecards with

Well designed Balanced Scorecards “work”.The survey shows that Balanced Scorecards provide the highest value when they aredesigned a
36、nd implemented with user involvement - confirming a design policy that has beencentral to 2GCs work on Balanced Scorecard design and implementation.The survey identified important secondary uses of Balanced Scorecard - supportingoperational management, and the delivery of individual appraisals or re
37、wards. This findingreconciles well with another 2GC design principle - that there are different types of BalancedScorecard application, each needing its own specific design approach.Overall, the survey shows that Balanced Scorecard remains an important and effectivemanagement tool, but one whose val
