“It’s been very informative and extremely useful. In the past we used benchmarking but this is no longer sufficient. We are very keen to implement the Balanced Scorecard and are in the process of doing that this year. Our main objective is customer satisfaction and this tool will prove very valuable in achieving this.”

“I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the event. IIR is a distinguished training centre which is well organised with highly distinguished speakers. That is why I am here. It’s still early days but we need to introduce the Balanced Scorecard more in Saudi, particularly within the government sector. We’re thinking about implementing it at the medical centre and are looking for help with ideas on how to facilitate development. What I’ve heard today will be extremely useful.”

“Very good. I read the book first and wanted to see how the Dr’s presented their thoughts and concepts. It’s our vision to implement the Balanced Scorecard and I’ll be taking away practical solutions to implement. It’s been extremely useful to see what they recommend and we’ll be using a down scaled down version of theirs to fit our structure.”

“Extremely informative, incorporating all of the main Balanced Scorecard themes. I’m from a financial background but wanted practical examples of how to handle particular situations. I got that. They’ve really grabbed my attention and I will find what I’ve learnt extremely useful, particularly how to handle performance in a recession.”

“This is far better than any other Balanced Scorecard event I’ve ever attended and I’ve found it very useful. I don’t have too much experience in strategic planning but I started reading their book before I came and it got me hooked! I didn’t expect to be so enthusiastic to learn but I’m finding that I’ll be able to apply what I’m learning even though I work in the government rather than the private sector. Everything was explained so well, in a very attractive and simple way.”

“Kaplan and Norton are so famous – I wanted to get their autographs and learn from the highest level. I wanted business case studies that I’ll be able to apply immediately and found it very interesting and straight to the point. I’ve got some really great tips and some very interesting real case scenarios and examples of lessons learnt that I’ll be able to apply within my daily work. I can actually relate to those case studies. I also found the diagrams and structures very useful and informative because now I have a structure to follow when I’m executing the strategy. This has been highly insightful and of great benefit.”

“Kaplan and Norton together have reinvented Corporate Strategy as we know it and so seeing them here together and hearing about their methodologies in an open forum discussion is just amazing. I’m very happy. IIR has done a great job – very organised, with great speakers and relevant case studies so no surprise there!”

“I’ve enjoyed it very much. It’s provided me with the tools so that I can actually implement the Balanced Scorecard practically by myself. That’s so much better than just having a straightforward lecture.”

“This is my first time at the conference and it’s been perfect but very intense! I’m the MD of Global energies and deal with utilities and power and so it’s been very relevant. We’ve been trying to implement the Balanced Scorecard for about a year now, on and off but to no avail. I never really understood it properly before, but now all has become clear and I’m confident of success!”

“Excellent. I’ve been working with Palladium on strategy execution so this came at exactly the right time. Very useful and informative with clear slides and first class presenters. This is an exceptional event, but you can tell that by the great turnout!”
