How to use this KPI Assessment:

There are 13 multiple choice criteria to score your KPI excellence, followed by a few demographic questions. It takes about 4 minutes to complete the assessment.

When you've finished the assessment, a results summary will be displayed that shows your score, and also tailored tips to improve your KPI excellence, based on your score. 

IMPORTANT: Make sure to print or copy your results summary, so you can later access the links to your tailored KPI tips.
