You can create measurements for anything you are doing so it is also quite creative. So, let’s get to it and learn more!
The acronym KPI (Key Performance Indicators) often strikes terror in the uninitiated lawyer. However, they are not only nothing to fear but a simple documentable measure you should embrace.
