Abstract

A priori evaluation and monitoring of crisis management strategy effectiveness should lead to more effective use of scarce and expensive resources. We propose a two part process: First, a Crisis Management Balanced Scorecard (CMBSC), based on Kaplan and Norton’s Balanced Scorecard, guides the monitoring and implementation of a crisis management strategy. In support of the CMBSC we propose a systems-based structuring of the tangible and intangible concerns that are the basis of crisis management.
