The strategy map of workplace resource management links workplace resource management with the competitive strategy of organization’s core business. It helps to find the critical actions to be taken within workplace resource management, in order to support the core business. It provides a pool of measures and methods that one can apply in workplace resource management and which was tested in ProWork project. It illustrates the cause-and-effect relationships between actions taken in workplace resource management and organizational performance

The strategy map for workplace resource management was developed based on findings from the ProWork- project’s case organizations. It is based on Kaplan & Norton’s Balanced Score Card where the "balance" in the balanced scorecard refers to the insight that to achieve a comprehensive view of an organization's performance, it needs to be seen from different perspectives.

ProWork (2006-2009) is a research project between Helsinki University of Technology, Stanford University (USA) and NTNU(Norway). Funding partners are Tekes, HP, NCC, Nokia, Nordea, Senate Properties and Martela.
