Acerca da preparação da agenda estratégica

Acerca da importância do balanced scorecard e do mapa da estratégia para o processo de (re)formulação da estratégia:
"In this paper, we examine whether organisations that use SPMSs [strategic performance measurement systems] engage in strategy formulation processes differently from those that use performance measurement systems (PMSs) which do not qualify as SPMSs, or those which do not use any type of PMS. In particular, we hypothesise that the use of SPMSs will relate to 1) a greater frequency of strategy (re)formulations, and 2) a more comprehensive strategic agenda, reflected through a greater number and a wider variety of strategic decisions in each strategy (re)formulation.
...
Our findings suggest that the use of SPMSs (as opposed to other forms of PMS) by an organisation’s top management team translates into a more comprehensive strategic agenda. Prior studies have shown that strategic agendas shape the extent and direction of corporate strategic change.
...
The results of our study are consistent with the claim that the use of SPMSs influences strategy-making by increasing the managers’ ability to develop more comprehensive strategic agendas.
...
the use of SPMSs has an impact on the nature of the strategic agendas arising from the strategy (re)formulation processes.
...
the use of SPMSs helps frame managers’ mental representations because of their informational effects. These effects are manifested in three broad areas of strategy formulation processes: decision content (e.g. more informed content), analytical dimensions of the process (e.g. more rigour, coordination, efficiency) and social dimensions of the process (e.g. provision of a forum for negotiation and legitimisation).
...
Interestingly, we observed no difference in any of these variables when we compared firms using PMSs that do not qualify as SPMSs and firms that do not have any PMS in place. These findings lend support to the argument that it is precisely the specific configuration of features that sets SPMSs apart from other PMSs that is most relevant here. Furthermore, a separate analysis of the effects of each of the dimensions constituting a SPMS suggested that the detected effects of their use are primarily associated with the inclusion of multi-perspective indicators and of cause-effect linkages in the design of the SPMS."
