M.Comm. / From the literature is it well known that the environment in which companies currently compete, is continuously changing. It is therefore increasingly important for companies to align the energy of all its employees with the strategy of the company. Furthermore it is important that the management team not only receive feedback on whether the company's strategy is implemented, but also on how well it is implemented and executed. Measuring the progress towards the successful execution of the strategy is vital for management in the continuously changing environment. The balanced scorecard methodology enables management to align the energy of the employees to the proper execution of the strategy and measuring the progress towards achieving the strategy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the balanced scorecard as a measuring tool as implemented in a local petrochemical company.
