Despite progress to improve the health status of the population, in 2005 Ethiopia’s population still faced a high rate of morbidity and mortality, and the overall health status remained relatively poor. The Ministry of Health was looking for a method to strategically align all of its various tools, programs, processes, and personnel into a comprehensive system that would measurably improve the overall health of the citizens of Ethiopia.
This case study primarily focuses on the recalibration of the FMOH scorecard in 2009-2010, the cascade work performed in 2011-2013, and the break-through improvements that the Ethiopian Health Sector achieved as a result of improved strategic direction and alignment using
The Institute Way. In fact, it has been such a success that the Prime Minster of Ethiopia has now mandated that all Ministries in Ethiopia adopt the balanced scorecard as a strategic planning and performance management methodology.
