Turn Your KPIs Into Actionable Steps Most management meetings include a recital of the latest Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for the business. As they are read out loud, some take notes and others nod their heads. A few questions are asked and once complete, the meeting proceeds to the next agenda item. Wait, what just happened? If you run a company whose KPI’s are off the charts to the good, you can stop reading at this point. For the others, this is a chance to take what you hear and see and turn these reports into actionable steps for improvement.
