Maccarrone Et Al 2013. ππ Flashcards
What does Maccarone et al 2013 discuss in the paper?
proposes the use of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) method of Kaplan and Norton (1992), which is a holistic management performance tool that can be used by managers to put into action their business strategy.
What does the balanced scorecard method describe?
The BSC suggests the creation of a framework to assess projects / plans based on the Protocol on Integrated Coastal Zone Management in the Mediterranean (Protocol).
What do Maccarone et al 2013 analyse?
The Protocol is analyses according to the BSC model, and it shows how it can be integrated with assessment and environmental management tools, such as the Driving forces, Pressures, States, Impacts and Responses (DPSIR) framework.
What do the authors suggest?
The proposed process has suggested a novel framework for analysing the ICZM plans of coastal managers and stakeholders. I
What does the proposed analytical framework provide?
The analytical framework facilitates the examination of :
- Drivers and causes of the ICZM strategy
- the possible impact on society and coastal communities,
- the most appropriate measures to achieve the objectives and the practicalities of implementing such measures given the institutional context of where these are developed.
What is a BSC?
Measurement is a means of setting and achieving the strategic balanced scorecard method of Kaplan and Norton (1992) objectives for an organisation through the adoption of concrete initiatives.
The BSC has been developed to measure the following four perspectives: financial, customer, internal business processes, and learning and growth.
Management system inspired by the βplan-do-check-actβ cycle. The BSC = measurement is a means of setting and achieving the strategic objectives for an organisation through the adoption of concrete initiatives.
What is required to achieve an integrated approach? Why is this difficult?
An integrated and sustainable approach to the ICZM at a local scale requires multidisciplinary institutional coordination at all government levels across different sectors and involving all con- cerned stakeholders.
This is a difficult task given the current institutional fragmentation that characterises coastal zone man- agement and the wide number of institutions and organisations involved in coastal government, pointing to the necessity of examining and possibly revising the ICZM strategic management system.
What does this paper suggest?
novel framework for analysing the ICZM plans of coastal managers to analyse the drivers and causes of the ICZM strategy, the possible impact on society and coastal communities, the most appropriate measures to achieve the objectives and the practicalities of implementing such measures given the institutional context of where they are developed.
What do the authors acknowledge?
The framework does not disregard the number of challenges which include the need to gain acceptance as a real ICZM strategic guide, as a useful tool for comparing several ICZM plans and as a means to share the stakeholder vision, mission and results of the coastal policy.
