How to pick measures • The financial perspective …designers were encouraged to choose measures to answer to the question, “How do we look to shareholders? (or investors; taxpayers)” • The customer perspective encourages the identification of measures that answer the question, “How do customers see us?” • The internal business perspective encourages the identification of measures that answer the question, “What must we excel at?” • The innovation and learning perspective encourages the measures that answer the question, “Can we continue to improve and create value?”
