The purpose of the Session Long Project is to give you the opportunity to explore the applicability of the Module to your own life, work, and place in space and time, and to experiment with the Module to see how the otherwise academically rigorous presentation of a topic may, with more or less work and\/or trauma, become \u201cup close and personal\u201d. This is done in a number of different ways \u2014 sometimes cumulative papers, sometimes practical hands-on experimentation with a tool of some sort, sometimes reflections on a place of work or life. The common thread is personal application, aimed at demonstrating a cumulative knowledge and understanding of the course\u2019s material. For this course, the Session Long Project will take the form of putting together background from each of the four perspectives for a balanced scorecard approach to an organization or organizational unit with which you are familiar. In the final module, you will have a go at strategy mapping. You\u2019re not building a complete balanced scorecard \u2014 that would be far beyond our current scope \u2013 but you\u2019ll have a chance to see what goes into it and how it gets put together into a coordinated whole. As in the cases, you\u2019ll be drawing on your previous course work to help. The Module 1 assignment has two parts. First, you need to identify an organization to which you have access to at least some information concerning financial data; staffing and human resource systems; marketing and customer relations; information systems; and operations. While most material on the Balanced Scorecard is written from the private, for-profit point of view, it\u2019s perfectly possible to use this approach with public or non-profit organizations as well. For the second part of this assignment, consider the organization\u2019s mission and strategy from the perspective of its financial operations (from your work on the case, your previous course work, and your background reading, you should be reasonably clear what such operations are). In this section of the assignment you\u2019ll begin to identify objectives and measures relevant to that perspective. If you\u2019re unclear on just what objectives and measures are, here is a presentation that describes what they are and how to write them. SLP Assignment Expectations When you have thought about it and made your selection, please specify (2-3 pages): The name of your organization What this organization does \u2013 its mission, vision and overall strategy The access you have to information about this organization \u2014 remember, you\u2019ll need information about its financial performance, marketing, internal operations, strategy, and management systems. Once you\u2019re reasonably clear on what\u2019s involved, think about your organization and its finances, and then: Identify at least three objectives for improving the organization\u2019s financial position, and show how they relate to the mission, vision and strategy of the organization. For each objective, develop at least one meaningful performance measure (metric). For each objective, identify at least one expected level of performance (target). For each objective, identify at least one new action or program that needs to be developed to ensure successful implementation of the organization\u2019s strategy (initiative). Here\u2019s a table that you may wish to copy and fill in: Objective Measure Target Action<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
