The “Strategy-Focused Organization” the Balanced Scorecard

The importance of staying strategic in everything you do is underscored by the growth of the Travel & Tourism Industry.   The Travel Industry Association of America (TIA) reports tourism as a $1.3 trillion business that generates $100 billion in tax revenues and creates 1.7 million jobs or one of every 8 jobs.

Because tourism is increasingly on everyone’s radar screens, DMOs, CVBs, and other tourism entities will be pulled in many directions.  Everyone will want a piece of the pie, especially as travel and tourism continues to grow in prominence.

For this reason, it is imperative that tourism organizations become strategy focused.  Tomorrow’s high performance organization will stay strategic in everything they do. That’s why half of the Fortune 1000 companies are using the Balanced Scorecard management model to provide a framework to assist them with:

bullet

Creating a strategy-focused structure that shows everyone (Board, Staff and Volunteers) how they fit into achieving the organization’s mission.

bullet

Guiding resource allocation to meet key objectives; eliminating programs that no longer deliver value.
