Does a coach draft 11 strikers?
Does a coach draft 11 strikers? A good coach will not consider drafting 11 players in the striker’s box. He doesn’t because he only needs one really good striker. If there are too many strikers, the efficiency goes down: they get in each other’s way. Furthermore, other essential players, such as the necessary midfielders and defenders, would be lacking, which would stop the supply to the striker. Multiple real strikers are also unaffordable. Moreover, the chances of successful cooperation are extremely low.
If you translate this into the KPI problem, what is the result? If you work with too many KPIs, you will be stuck with an overloaded dashboard. You will lose the overview, just like in the clod soccer of the youngest pupils. You will never win. In addition to pure KPIs, you also need “regular” performance indicators and indicators. And collectively, just like in soccer, these ensure a balanced team. In short: if you don’t take this into account, then your team will constantly be offside and you will be running behind the facts.

Reviews about The SMART KPI Toolkit 2023
I think your e-book is terribly good. It should be required reading for every dga/ceo. We have all our clients create a KPI dashboard (process indicators) and scoreboard (results and performance indicators).
Entrepreneurs have an awful lot of trouble keeping focus in that endless stream of to-do's. Concrete and well-chosen KPIs help tremendously in keeping on track. While I think the depth you offer in the e-book goes beyond what the average dga needs to know, that depth of knowledge is hugely valuable to us as mentors to those dga's.
With the SMART KPI Toolkit, we have greatly reduced the number of KPIs and goals within our organization from 80 to about 15, giving us much more control over those factors that really matter (measured in business results). Passionned Group then provided us with excellent guidance in setting up and implementing a KPI system/dashboard.
