What is a KPI?
A KPI, or a key performance indicator, is a measurable target that shows how well an individual or a business is performing in terms of meeting their goals. KPIs can be financial, such as net profit or revenue, or nonfinancial, such as customer satisfaction or retention. KPIs help organizations track their progress, identify their strengths and weaknesses, and make informed decisions to improve their outcomes.
