Purposedifferent
When several contexts need to talk to each other, it makes their relationships and dependencies legible. It helps sort integration pressure and responsibilities across system boundaries.When goals are formulated too generally, it brings measurability, direction, and timing into shape. It prevents intentions from staying without clear verification.Balanced Scorecard translates strategy into a few interconnected perspectives and metrics.

It makes goals connectable to focus and review.
