assignment Overview: Develop a balanced scorecard to measure the critical factors in successful implementation of your strategy recommendations (3% of course grade). The scorecard will be incorporated into this final draft of the business plan.
Assignment Objectives: The first objective is to develop a scorecard that will measure the critical components of your business strategy–those items that must be monitored to ensure successful implementation of your proposed strategy. The second objective is to develop a comprehensive, fully edited draft of the business plan for your client company to enter into and market its product/service within the selected country.
Assignment Requirements: Read, edit, and trim your draft Business Plan, covering all sections 1-18 into a smoothly flowing final draft. The Balanced Scorecard (section 18 ) should flow logically from, and reflect the key components of, your business plan strategy. The BSC will be an appendix to the plan, but must be explained in text.
Incorporate all previous feedback into the draft and aim for a document of approximately 40 pages, to be further trimmed in the final version next week. Keep all support tables and charts in appendices. The Scorecard only will be graded this week, but faculty will try to provide as much feedback as possible on the entire draft, in time for the team to incorporate into your final version next week.
One member is to post the Scorecard and draft of your Business Plan, in the Group Assignment folder by the end of Week 11 and title it “Strategy Implementation Scorecard and Draft Business Plan”.
