Businesses require a tool to measure the execution of objectives. As far as the goals of objectives they are supposed to align with a stated vision and mission. Effective objectives ensure that daily activities align with the big picture or if there will be a need to adjust redirect focus. A balanced scorecard is a tool, generated by Robert S. Kaplan and David P. Norton. Authors Pearce and Robinson (2009) suggest, a balanced scorecard “Is a set of measures that are directly linked to the company’s strategy,” “Directs a company to link its own long-term strategy with tangible goals and actions,” and “Provides a framework to translate a strategy into operational terms” (p. 202).

It was noted that there are five core competencies that are critical for all human resource managers, they are as follows: (a) strategic contribution, (b) personal credibility, (c) HR delivery, (d) business knowledge, and (e) HR technology. As the VP of Human Resource one of the areas that need to be developed within my organization would include HR delivery as it relates to the hiring process (Flynn, et al, 2007). One of my key areas of development would include a more employee-oriented company culture that emphasizes quality, continuous improvement, and high performance. As recruitment and retention continues to be a challenge how we hire individuals is key to this specific area of development, and the HR representative should ultimately take charge of this process by way of partnering with other key managers to implement the plan more effectively across the board (Alvin, 2011).

Diffusion scholars recognize five qualities that determine the success of an innovation. 1) Relative advantage This is the degree to which an innovation is perceived as better than the idea it supersedes by a particular group of users, measured in terms that matter to those users, like economic advantage, social prestige, convenience, or satisfaction. The greater the perceived relative advantage of an innovation, the more rapid its rate of adoption is likely to be. There are no absolute rules for what constitutes “relative advantage”. It depends on the particular perceptions and needs of the user group.
