Shareholders Rule
“They rule with an iron fist in America, in Britain, and increasingly around the world. This isn’t news. Your company is already kneeling at the altar of shareholder returns. Indeed you company has turned itself inside out to satisfy shareholders.
Yet over the next decade, its going to have to do more, far more to fill the gaping maw of the ever-hungry shareholder.”
Gary Hamel (“Leading the Revolution”)
The pressure on South African companies to perform and deliver increasing returns has never been higher.
While downsizing and cost cutting may be a relevant survival strategy in difficult times, sooner or later executives must face up to the reality that this is not sustainable, and that increased value for shareholders is directly linked to the increased value offered to customers.
This in turn requires that the firm identify the value that customers require, and then mobilise the entire organisation to deliver this value.
The Balanced Scorecard has proved to be a very powerful tool to unlock value for customers and thereby offer increased value for shareholders.
If any of this resonates with your own experience , and you would like more information on how you can benefit from the Balanced Scorecard, please get in touch with Andrew to discuss your particular challenges.
