"The ESM has helped our organization tremendously. It allows management and all levels of
associates to focus on our goals, the strategies we use to achieve those goals, as well as measure our
performance. The ESM has enabled us to see our plans in action, and monitor our progress. This tool
also involves all 300+ employees in planning, execution, and the results of our company's initiatives and goals."
"We had our first Balanced Scorecard meeting with the full Strategic Planning team a couple of
weeks ago and it went very well. The information was easier to present and understand than the
method we were using before. The members really liked the comments we added to the specific measures.
The team members were able to obtain a clearer picture of how all our action items and initiatives link
to and impact our measures and goals. ESM is helpful to our management team to focus on the overall progress of our company.”
"Madison Paper Company-Alsip, a subsidiary of Myllykoski, has been using software from Palladium for over three
years to manage its strategy. We found that the Executive Strategy Manager application provided an excellent
way for us to manage our monthly reporting meetings. We currently have our North American operations all using
the reporting software, and we have recently begun linking personal development plans to our scorecard using the
Personal Scorecard application offered by Palladium. We are very pleased with our choice of software and professional
services to help us manage our strategy."
"I want to let you know how wonderful it is to work with our ESM account manager. She is so knowledgeable and helpful, returns all her calls and emails promptly and is great support during our quarterly report out crunches. We use ESM to house our strategy and we love the product."
"Profertil has been using the ESM for more than two years now to help us better connect and foster communication between teams and individuals. The ESM has also made our Strategy Review Meetings much more productive, by providing visual access to our data. We are also delighted by the standardized reporting format it provides, letting us consolidate all information which previously resided on disparate spreadsheets and Word documents."
"The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh selected ESM as its preferred software solution because it is very flexible and can be adapted to suit any performance management process based on the Balanced Scorecard (BSC). The attractive component of this software solution is that its strategy map interface drills down to objectives, measures and initiatives at corporate and divisional level and used the Red Amber Green traffic light system of visual alerts. This has the advantage of presenting a view of the strategy map with which staff had become familiar in the corporate plan. The performance analysis is supported by quantitative data, narrative explanations, cause and effect linkages and their impact on the achievement of the objectives. The ability of many staff to input data permitted a much wider engagement in developing/formulating, supporting/reporting on strategy progress and become much more aligned to our goals. Finally, we have found the staff at Palladium to be very responsive to queries and offer help in a very positive and constructive way."."
