Organization strategy & development: balanced scorecard

The balanced scorecard is a strategic planning and management system that is used extensively in business and industry, government, and nonprofit organizations worldwide to align business activities to the vision and strategy of the organization, improve internal and external communications, and monitor organization performance against strategic goals.

Eén van de opmerkelijke ontwikkelingen in kwaliteitsland is het organisatiemodel van de heren Kaplan en Norton: de Balanced Scorecard. Het is een weergave van de balans in een goed functionerende organisatie. Centraal staan de visie en strategie van een organisatie. Deze worden concreet gemaakt in vier perspectieven: financieel perspectief (lees: winst), afnemersperspectief (klanten), interne processen (activiteiten) en het leer- en groeiperspectief (continuïteit). Van deze vier perspectieven wordt ook de onderlinge samenhang gedefinieerd. De balanced scorecard wordt met name gebruikt als evaluatiehulpmiddel voor managers die complexe doelstellingen hebben. Het idee achter de balanced scorecard is dat een manager niet alleen is af te rekenen op financiële resultaten, maar dat ook andere prestaties worden meegenomen in de jaarlijkse beoordeling. De term balanced komt van het feit dat verschillende factoren ook verschillend worden gewogen.

       Job crafting voor succesvol solliciteren

Een goed zicht op uw competenties, op passende functies, organisaties en werking van de actuele arbeidsmarkt, stelt u in staat een weloverwogen inschatting te maken van de haalbaarheid van de uitgezette sollicitatiekoers.
Hierbij valt op dat professionals met een zelfde functie toch heel verschillend over hun baan en werkgeschiedenis denken. De verdienste van job crafting is dat het een wezenlijke bijdrage levert alle onderdelen van het werk, de functie en persoonlijke competenties te analyseren en systematisch de mogelijkheden voor verbetering na te gaan.
Bij de opzet van uw curriculum vitae en uw persoonlijke presentaties wordt het verschil met de toepassing van job crafting merkbaar. Voor de sollicitatiecommissie bij het maken van de   afwegingen een belangrijk ijkpunt bij de besluitvorming.
Het versterken bij de  persoonlijke oriëntatie op arbeidsmarkt, het verwerven van een nieuwe baan en het effectiever kunnen functioneren van mensen in organisaties vormt de kern van onze missie. Daarvoor ontwikkelen en geven wij trainingen waarbij het accent wordt gelegd op handelingsgericht leren en gedragsgericht werken.
De persoonlijke situatie met alle mogelijk denkbare weerbarstige omstandigheden is uitgangspunt van onze aanpak en wordt er met job crafting geoefend met nieuw gedrag. Het belangrijkste instrument is zijn eigen persoon. Aan de omgeving kan hij niets veranderen, aan zichzelf wel.

Il mercato olandese


Lasciamo volentieri la parola a


Esperto del mercato olandese che ci racconta come sia possibile per le aziende italiane fare affari nel paese dei tulipani.
Ho vissuto per 5 anni in Italia. Nel passato essendo direttore di vendita & marketing con focus su sviluppo del mercato europeo e benelux e organizazione. Ora, dal punto di vista di strategical & operational management support, disponibile a dare sopporto a ditte per quanto riguarda lo sviluppo del mercato locale e la struttura dell'organizzazione.Sviluppo del mercato, vendita & marketing incl. online presenza.
Sono un "imprenditore" multi lingual commerciale, un self starter, professionale in vendita & & marketing
La crisi economica, com'è noto, ha toccato tutto e tutti.
Ci sono Paesi al mondo, più o meno preparati a far fronte alle crisi, alla crisi del secolo o anche a quella della storia. L'America di Obama ci prova soprattutto con l'infondere speranza e ottimismo, benzina naturale del motore umano, capace di muovere le folle, di 'accendere' ogni singolo individuo e portarlo a raggiungere grandi risultati. L'Europa, dal canto suo che fa? Che fanno i singoli Paesi del vecchio continente? Esiste la stessa carica (capacità, direbbero alcuni) di ricreare il giusto ambiente per una nuova ripresa economica?
Noi crediamo di si. L'esempio ci viene dato da due grandi Stati dall'illustre passato e dalle profonde differenze, la cara affaticata Italia e la poliedrica Olanda. Legate da una grande intesa commerciale, le due nazioni da tempo usufruiscono di notevoli vantaggi nei settori dell'import-export. Nel 2009 le esportazioni olandesi in Italia ammontavano ad oltre 20 miliardi di Euro, viceversa i prodotti italiani entrati in Olanda raggiungevano quasi gli 11 miliardi di Euro. Le figure erano tali da portare ciascuno dei due Paesi, rispettivamente al 5° e al 7° posto nel commercio con l'estero.
Nonostante il saldo della bilancia commerciale dei Paesi Bassi sia più che positiva in confronto a quella italiana, l'obiettivo principale rimane quello di rafforzarne l'intesa, sia commerciale che economica.
Nella nostra epoca gioca un ruolo sempre più strategico la conoscenza dei mercati
Il tema è unico e attuale: il bisogno di comunicare, di confrontarsi, di porre sullo stesso piano due culture diverse, di raggiungere alla fine non solo un risultato comune, ma un risultato nuovo, originale, in grado di generare in continuazione nuove proposte, in una parola, in grado di produrre Progresso.
Risposte esaurienti e professionali alle problematiche di internazionalizzazione delle imprese per il miglior programma di penetrazione commerciale.
