Written by Melissa Hugel | Apr 26, 2022

We know that key performance indicators (KPIs) are essential tools in keeping track of progress and growing your business. However, tracking and measuring KPIs can sometimes be a daunting task. What is the best format? What data should you actually include?

One of the best tools in your KPI arsenal is a KPI dashboard. A KPI dashboard is a visual display of information - think charts, graphs, etc. - that combines your most important data into a format that allows for quick review and analysis. Dashboards distill large swathes of data into digestible packets of information, allowing you to make quick, data-driven decisions. 

KPI dashboards have immense benefits for teams and businesses, including:

  • They highlight important information for stakeholders, allowing them to easily understand data quickly.
  • Dashboards are crucial for identifying any problems or issues early, meaning you can tackle them before they become irreversible. 
  • Most importantly, they provide the data and analytical information to actually solve problems and make improvements. 

But knowing how important KPI dashboards are is only half the battle. Creating a dashboard that effectively tracks and communicates the right data while also not being too complicated to update is just as important. 

This infographic outlines the 10 key steps to creating a dashboard that will help you track, communicate, and action your KPIs.
