Named tools used by managers to assess an organization's position, set objectives and track performance against them, including a structured assessment of an organization's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, a management approach built on agreeing specific objectives with staff and measuring results against them, and a framework that tracks performance across several perspectives beyond financial results alone. Belongs here: any tool whose primary use is strategic assessment, objective-setting or performance measurement rather than a specific production process or a general theory of motivation. Does not belong here: a named method for improving an existing production process, grouped under Quality and Process Improvement Theories.
