Summary

Why do so many metrics include the word “Key”? How do those metrics differ, and how do teams and organizations decide which key metric is best for them? Join this DesignOps community discussion to compare different types of three letter acronym metrics such as KPI, KEI, and KSP (Key Performance Indicator, Key Experience Indicator, and Key Strategic Priorities). And let's not forget OKR's (Objectives and Key Results)!

Key Insights

  • The KPI Compass framework clarifies the relationships between inputs and outputs in innovation.

  • Innovation must focus on changing customer behavior, not just the development of new ideas.

  • Engaging diverse teams in conversations about metrics enhances alignment and effectiveness.

  • Tactical metrics should support strategic KPIs to provide a comprehensive view of performance.

  • Utilizing storytelling can effectively communicate the value of design initiatives to stakeholders.
