Key Result Indicators: the 4 kinds of results for any company
In addition to (key) performance indicators, financial indicators, and process indicators, you can perform measurements in the form of Key Result Indicators (KRIs). This type of indicator shows performance in a company’s key performance areas . The score on the KRIs is highly dependent on the scores on the individual organizational KPIs . The crux of a higher profit (KRI) or more satisfied customers (customer satisfaction KRI) lies in jointly discussing, understanding, and improving your KPI processes. From high to low, from left to right in the organization. Everyone needs to get a really good understanding of how you make your money.
What is a KRI?
A Key Result Indicator is the end result of many activities and efforts in the entire organization. The score of the most important KRIs reflects the ups and downs of everything. A definition:
A Key Result Indicator indicates one important aspect: whether the organization (and management) is functioning properly.
It is crucial that a company’s management and shop floor understand the ways to improve the score on a KRI.
The most important KRIs of any organization
