Drive KPI Reviews: From Dashboards to Decisions is an intermediate course for professionals who want to lead impactful, data-driven performance conversations. In today’s fast-paced business environment, success depends on moving from reactive problem-solving to proactive decision-making. This course teaches you how to build the tools and lead the discussions that make that shift possible.
Inspired by the rigorous, data-driven cultures at companies like Amazon and Netflix, you will learn to construct a real-time KPI dashboard in a BI tool like Tableau. You won't just learn to display data; you'll learn to design a dashboard that gives leaders instant visibility into business health across key funnel, brand, and financial metrics. The course culminates in you leading a simulated monthly KPI review, where you'll identify lagging indicators, diagnose performance gaps, and present clear, actionable recommendations. This course requires a familiarity with business metrics but no prior Tableau experience. By the end, you'll be equipped to transform a standard meeting into a high-stakes decision-making forum that drives accountability and results.
This module provides a complete toolkit for leading data-driven performance reviews. You will begin by understanding why dynamic dashboards are critical for modern decision-making, drawing inspiration from the rigorous data cultures at Amazon and Netflix. You'll then get hands-on, learning the principles of effective dashboard design before leading a simulated KPI review where you will analyze lagging indicators and recommend clear, actionable tactical shifts.
