Draw a KPI chart
A KPI stands for Key Performance Indicator. It's a measurable value that shows how effectively a company or an individual is achieving a key business objective.
For example, think about your car's engine temperature. The engine temperature gauge quickly tells you if the engine is running as it should (not too hot, not too cold), which makes it a key performance indicator.
