    Abstract: Various new and non-obvious apparatus and methods for creating a strategic plan for a business, implementing the strategic plan, and measuring progress towards the plan are disclosed. One of the disclosed embodiments is a guided method for creating corporate goals, and from the goals creating action items. The action items are then used to create department goals. Using the department goals, departments then set department action items. The department action items then become individual goals. The individuals then use the goals to set individual action items. The corporation can track progress by tracking progress made towards the individual action items. The individual action items are aggregated to (at least partially) produce the department scorecard. Department scorecards can then be aggregated to (at least partially) produce the corporate scorecard.
