This paper defines and describes strategic linkage models - a framework "to help management teams to record their thinking about strategic cause-and effect relationships"

This in-depth primer on the balanced scorecard provides a soup-to-nuts introduction and overview of the framework. 

This paper compares and contrasts two of the most widely adopted Performance Management (PM) frameworks – Balanced Scorecard and Results-Based Management. 

 This survey answers the following questions: Who uses Balanced Scorecard? What are Balanced Scorecards being used for? How is Balanced Scorecard used? What sort of Balanced Scorecard design is in use? How was the Balanced Scorecard designed?

This paper asserts that the Balanced Scorecard can be used to support two distinct management activities – management control and strategic control – and that planned use should influence the Balanced Scorecard design adopted. The paper describes characteristics of Balanced Scorecards appropriate for each purpose, and suggests a framework to help select between them.
