„Whatever will be, will be…“
We can, we have to do something today for our future.
Therefore, we should
at least meet the requirements of the future
or better: set standards
or best: try to influence the changes in society
We want to realise our dreams, so we have to prepare our future,
even though it is not a 100% controllable !

Why could a BSC make sense for your company?
We achieve joint objectives
We translate strategies into action
By communication we achieve thinking, responsibility, objective-orientated action of our employees and partners
We assure sustainability of our company

Is the BSC sensible for Your company ?
52% of the Germans have secluded with their employer.
Responding to the question in a representative study, whether they would presumably be working at their current company next year, they answered:
„No way - as soon as I find a job in a different company, I will be leaving the firm!"

Strategy
What is the strategic objective of a company / an organisation?
The basic strategic objective is that of securing the sustainability of a company/organisation.
Sustainability can be achieved only on the condition that all relevant stakeholders can benefit from it.
Consequently the objective of a strategy is that of generating a dynamic equilibrium of the benefits which can accepted by all the
relevant stakeholders.

What is our goal ?
For whom are we working ?
What could for us be always a challenge ?
No target, but a motivation for us, to form always new goals !
Our dream !
What is our unique contribution for other people, for our society ?
Who is missing what, if we would not be there ?

Example: business idea
Company producing rear-view mirrors for cars
The values of this company are: innovation trust respect
the dream, the challenge, the very long-time interior goal, the “vision” of this company: the leading car-manufacturers are our clients
The unique contribution for our society, the corporate social purpose: Our “mission”: we produce highest-tech safety

Which needs do we really manage with our offer?

Do we have proper deliverers and Cooperation-Partners ?
What makes the clients tick ? Are these the clients, whose needs
we intend to manage ?
Do these clients match to us ?
