Managers aren’t satisfied with just measures of communication activities we accomplished; they also want to see the outcomes. Key performance indicators (KPIs) are vital for effective performance reviews. Whether you manage a communication vehicle or an entire department, Angela Sinickas will show you how to develop your own KPIs and share them with your leadership, as well as identify the right metrics and choose how to visually display them.

You will learn how to:

  • Collect and evaluate all the current measurements available to you.
  • Identify new metrics that may cost you nothing to collect.
  • Select the most meaningful metrics to track over time.
  • Establish baselines and set realistic targets for the metrics you select.
  • Choose among various options for sharing your results, such as a Balanced Scorecard, an index or various approaches to a visual “dashboard” of the key indicators.
