Key performance indicators (KPIs) are high-level snapshots of an organization or a business process using specific predefined performance measures.

If a Key Performance Indicator is going to be of value, there must be a way to accurately define and measure it. For example, “Generate More Repeat Customers” is useless as a KPI without some way to distinguish between new and repeat customers. “Provide excellent project management and business analysis ” won’t work as a KPI because there is no way to measure this.

Defining KPIs is a standardized skill for business improvement (BI) analysts. However, if you try to find KPIs to measure business analysis and project managers, you will find little written on the subject.

In this webinar, John Parker will present ideas of how business analysts and project managers can best define KPIs to improve business analysis and project management results and deliver more value to the business. The focus will be on defining KPIs for an agile enterprise.

Exploit The Top Trends in 2014 to Build Better Products Faster

What are you doing this year to improve product delivery in your organization?

The pressure to push higher-quality products to market even faster is real. Release frequency is increasing, teams are growing, and yet most products deliver late and fail to satisfy customer needs.

  • Speed
  • Complexity
  • Alignment

Tune in to hear Eric Winquist, CEO of Jama Software and an emerging leader in product delivery, explain the top challenges facing teams in 2014 and reveal strategies for how you can fix product delivery in your organization.

If improving product delivery isn’t one of your strategic priorities this year, attend this webinar to learn why it should be.
