Metrics that Matter

Tried-and-true metrics — e.g. margin, NPS, employee retention, website traffic — have long been the primary ways to gauge business performance, viability, and impact. But in an ever-changing, Future of Work landscape, what needs to be measured has changed. Standard KPIs and OKRs need to be augmented by measuring what’s needed, versus what's easy.

Our award-winning Metrics Finder service enables you to unearth multi-dimensional metrics that are capable of addressing the new complexities and pace of business disruption, so that you can effectively shape strategy, generate cascading ROI, and peer into the future with confidence. Whether there's an area you want to measure for the first time — AI preparedness, change management, customer stickiness, etc. — or you need to re-imagine your existing measurement approach, we help you elevate the metrics that matter so that you can unlock the insights needed to catalyze success.

In Their Words

"Oftentimes we look at data as a measurement of what happened. The Metrics Finder is about looking at data as a way to figure out what we can make happen. We now have a common language when it comes to how we think about quality relationships, the new actions and behaviors that will drive connectedness, and new ways to measure.”

Rob Hancock, United Way of Rhode Island, Senior Director of Marketing and Communications

Customer & Employee Flight Risk

Leverage a multi-factor measurement approach to forecast when a stakeholder (client, employee, partner, shareholder, etc.) is slipping into at-risk and dissatisfaction. Establish a flashing beacon for critical customers or employees who demand attention so that action can be taken to prevent the exodus from occurring — like any good leading indicator.

AI Preparedness

AI is no longer a niche IT project; it is everyone’s responsibility. AI Preparedness, as a metric, helps your team and organization intentionally assesses how ready you are to adopt AI, incorporating factors such as business case preparation, data quality, technical infrastructure, governance, and organizational culture, among other factors.

Quality of a Client Relationship

Do you have the right clients? Sales team spinning their wheels? By measuring the quality of client relationships — from durability and loyalty to referral potential — you can unlock where to aim go-to-market efforts to create a powerful acquisition engine. Dive into our case study here of how we helped a company do just that.

Innovation Activation

Do seedling ideas advance fast to execution? Or do they die on the vine? Today’s companies can take an active stance in measuring the progression of new innovations into impactful execution, building into their culture space and permission to brainstorm, experiment, and create, all while embracing a “fail fast” mentality.
