Course Description
Project Management Expert: Metrics and Key Performance Indicators or KPIs
If you have ever seen the cockpit of an airplane, you have seen that it is filled with bits of information. Each bit of information tells the pilots something about the state of the plane, the status of the journey, or the external environment. Some of this information is vital for the safe trip. And some of it is less vital. KPIs or Key Performance Indicators, can be compared to the very vital pieces of information that pilots rely on for a safe trip to their destination. This course equips you with all the necessary basics about key performance indicators or KPIs. In concrete terms you will learn the following:
The difference between KPIs and metrics
Lagging versus leading KPIs
OKR or Objective Key Results
Balanced scorecard model
Symptom KPIs versus root KPIs

Five stars! The course does a fantastic job of taking complex corporate concepts and making them digestible. The real-world scenarios and exercises (like the video game company strategy case) really helped cement how the four perspectives of the Balanced Scorecard connect to long-term goals. Great instructor and very engaging presentation style."

Good explanation on KPI and OKR, easily digestible. Some of the examples weren't relevant for a project management, but can be used for a product management.
