KPI (Key Performance Indicator)
Quantitative metric used to measure performance.
KPIs differ from OKRs in that they're ongoing operational metrics, not time-boxed goals. Good KPIs are few, leading, and tied to a single owner.
The trap: vanity KPIs (page views, applications received) that go up without business impact. Replace with conversion-and-quality pairs: applications & offer-accept rate; sign-ups & activation rate; pipeline volume & close rate.
Keep going. Cross-pollinate.

Periodic structured assessment of employee performance.
