Measure What Matters — KPI Huddle Agenda, Script & Huddle Capture

A concise recurring huddle design with facilitator prompts, suggested timings, example metrics, and an interactive meeting capture form to record scoreboard items, a leading-indicator spotlight, learning questions, experiment updates, blockers, decisions, and assigned actions.

{ "type": "InteractiveFormDefinition", "Title": "Measure What Matters — KPI Huddle Capture", "IntroductionHtml": "

Purpose

This lightweight huddle helps teams focus on a small set of leading indicators, surface learning questions, record short experiments, and convert insights into owned actions. Keep it short, evidence-driven, and outcome-focused.

Agenda & Suggested Timings (15–30 minutes)

  1. Quick scoreboard (3 metrics) — 4–6 min: share current values, one insight or anomaly per metric.
  2. Leading-indicator spotlight (1 item) — 3–5 min: dive briefly into what’s changing and why it matters.
  3. Learning question & experiment update — 3–6 min: status, quick findings, next step.
  4. Blockers & decisions — 2–4 min: identify decisions that unblock progress and assign an owner.
  5. Actions & owners — 1–3 min: confirm clear next actions and due targets.

Facilitator prompts

  • "What changed since the last huddle?"
  • "Which metric surprised you, and why might that be?"
  • "What are we trying to learn this week?"
  • "Who owns the next experiment step and when will we check back?"

Use the fields below to capture the outcomes so the team builds an accessible record of experiments and decisions.
