<\/strong><\/p>\n employees must understand what they\u2019re working toward.<\/strong><\/p>\n by jody padar<\/i> key performance indicators separate the signals from the noise. throwing timesheets into the trash is your opportunity to focus all your attention on what is most important to your firm\u2019s continued success.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n good kpis are quantifiable measurements agreed to beforehand. they must be important to the organization as a whole and specific. here are a few examples you might consider adopting: determine a kpi that will help you measure how work moves through your firm. remember, kpis measure processes and workflow, not people. they should be relevant to your firm\u2019s values.<\/p>\n strong kpis are easy to measure and relevant to the process. you may want to rely on historical data to help you gauge present activity, but make sure you have enough data to make it a worthwhile comparison and factor in a fudge factor for inaccuracy.<\/p>\n no matter what, make sure everyone understands what is being measured. don\u2019t land on a crazy calculation as a kpi. you want it to be transparent and clear. when kpis don\u2019t work, it is usually because they\u2019re not implemented well, and employees don\u2019t understand what they\u2019re working toward. make sure that your kpis are clearly explained and measurable. simplicity is good. unnecessary complexity will drive everyone crazy.<\/p>\n determining the right kpis for you<\/strong><\/p>\n think of kpis as your map and compass to a better future. a good map is easy to follow. the same can be said of kpis. rarely has the kiss principle been more important. when it comes to kpis, you want to ensure they are concise and aligned.<\/p>\n you only want a handful of straightforward, easy-to-define and easily applicable kpis. if you have identified 50 outstanding kpis for your firm, cross off 47 of them. just make sure the three you keep will actually indicate success.<\/p>\n you also want your kpis to measure the data most impacting your financials and processes. to ensure this happens, everyone must agree to your new kpis up front. this way, everyone will know what they are working toward and be aligned.<\/p>\n from there, you want to consider:<\/p>\n there are also ways to go awry with kpis. proper implementation matters. everyone needs to be aligned and know what\u2019s being measured and why. there has to be a clear process around the measurement, monthly or quarterly, and the results must also be known. you\u2019ve wasted time and effort if you start using kpis but never share results with your team.<\/p>\n you also don\u2019t want to use kpis that lack impact. the goal of successful kpis is to reinforce behaviors leading to greater profitability. if an employee sees how a certain behavior is positively impacting the kpi, they will stick with it.<\/p>\n focus on the kpis your team feels they influence. i guarantee your team will ignore a kpi if they don\u2019t see a correlation between their activities and successfully meeting it. you want to create a strong relationship between positive performance and kpi measurement and ensure your teams see it.<\/p>\n an example of a specific kpi your team may not be able to impact is getting client documents in as one file rather than piecemeal. can your teams influence this? they can certainly try by nudging your clients in the right direction, but ultimately, they really can\u2019t fully determine the client\u2019s behavior, leading to frustration.<\/p>\n an example of a strong kpi would be the number of times your team hits their deadlines. it is straightforward, based on their own performance, easy to understand and definitely influences their success in servicing a client. you can\u2019t ask for more from a good kpi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" employees must understand what they\u2019re working toward.<\/strong>
