TRAINING: Building Strategy Maps and Scorecards in Utilities 1 1/2 - Day Course January 31st - February 1stCompany: EUCICourse Info: The utility industry is facing dramatic changes over the coming years—from renewables reaching grid parity to proliferation of distributed energy resources and rising competition from non-utility service providers—and for many utilities, their current business models and strategies are ill-equipped to deal with these challenges. If utilities want to survive and thrive in the coming energy future, they will need to become more customer-centric and innovative in their strategies, and find better ways of communicating and managing strategy so everyone in the organization understands their role in its execution. The Balanced Scorecard strategy execution system is a proven approach that helps executives drive strategic change in their organizations by connecting the dots between high-level strategy and what people do every day. This one-and-a-half day “how-to” training course will show utility executives how to build a strategy map and that clarifies and communicates their organization’s strategy, and how to translate that strategy map into a Balanced Scorecard of measures, targets and initiatives to make strategy everyone’s job.
