A Balanced Scorecard approach that generally has four perspectives:
- Financial
- Internal business processes
- Learning & Growth (human focus, or learning and development)
- Customer
Each of the four perspectives is inter-dependent – improvement in just one area is not necessarily a recipe for success in the other areas.
