Editor's Notes
- #4 Give them our WHY
- #6 Key Points: Not about choosing the KPIs or metric (see ROI), but about collecting & sharing
- #7 Poll Question #1 What best describes where you are in the process? I have a visual dashboard & willing to share I have the data & report it, but not in a visual dashboard I wish I had the data because I would report it
- #8 A dashboard is a visual display of the most important information needed to achieve one or more objectives, consolidated and arranged on a single screen so the information can be monitored at a glance. Stephen Few is the Principal of Perceptual Edge.
- #9 Power of having data you can use: id oppty, inform decisions, detect threats, drive behavior
- #10 Audience To whom are we talking? Attention Span is SHORT! Needs are DIFFERENT! National Staff Chapter Staff Volunteers How Will They Use? Informational – support decision-making Motivational – drive behavior Correctional – keep on track (alerts)
- #11 Poll #2 Regardless of the audience, what is your primary motivation for doing this? Informational – support decision-making Motivational – drive behavior Correctional – keep on track (alerts)
- #12 Audience To whom are we talking? Attention Span is SHORT! Needs are DIFFERENT! National Staff Chapter Staff Volunteers How Will They Use? Informational – support decision-making Motivational – drive behavior Correctional – keep on track (alerts)
- #13 Example CFMA Informational – look for trends so help hone support they provide, e.g. noticed many don’t have coordinated membership campaign, so will create tool kit in that Correctional – Use it to help chapters improve; give each chapter a report Put internally in categories: critical, medium, compliant (aka healthy) Motivational – tied to this year tied to popular subsidy program: The STAR Program provides a subsidy $3,000/chapter; has to be used for specific purpose
- #14 We’re not going into detail on this – just mentioning. Data Sources - What are we measuring? Key Performance Indicators: Begin with connecting to the organization’s strategic goals Membership – Recruitment/Renewal/Engagement Financial – Income/Expense Activity – Posts/Registrations/Volunteering/Donations/… Perceptions – Satisfaction/Net Promoter Score/Ratings/Comments Alignment – working in alignment with national
- #15 Poll #3 Which of these would you most like to benchmark in a dashboard? Membership – Recruitment/Renewal/Engagement Financial – Income/Expense Activity – Posts/Registrations/Volunteering/Donations/… Perceptions – Satisfaction/Net Promoter Score/Ratings/Comments Alignment – working in alignment with national
- #16 Are These The Right Key Performance Indicators (Valid, Reliable, Appropriate)? Actionable – Do I have any control over this outcome? Common Interpretation – Does my “10” = your “10”? Accessible/Credible – Is the data available with modest from trustworthy source? Transparent/Simple Calculation – Does everyone understand how it was generated?
- #18 SIOR Honed into 5 areas: ENGAGED MEMBERSHIP Chapter Participation (Unique members) Volunteers World Conferences (Unique members) SIOR Foundation donors MySIOR posts Transactions reports LOCAL PARTICIPATION Event attendance (Unique members) Event attendance (Cumulative) Regional conference attendance ENGAGED LEADERSHIP Meetings/events frequency (Monthly) Communications frequency (Monthly) CLC Meetings attendance BRAND RECOGNITION Sponsorship revenue ratio Prospects ratio RECRUITMENT Member growth (Gross) Young professionals growth Pull from a variety of data sources – HL info, registration nationally, membership data, registration lists from chapters, reports from chapters re volunteer lists, budget info Still in Excel – but storing all data collected in DB with future intent of creating solutions in tableau Report for national (detail) and chapters; We’ve shared back in aggregate by chapter size. Median and standard deviation. Insight to CRP’s: Started with a TF – came up with 20 potential things; narrowed down to critical ones Important to get feedback from members on what they value – to discover what are the priority points the organization/person working on this should determine what the metric they want the chapter benchmarked against is, whether that is all other chapters (within a certain category or not) or some constant (the communications question or an organization compliance requirement).

- #20 Design Attributes – What does it look like? Keeps Your Eyes on the Road – Focuses attention on where we’re going. Tells a Story – Provides context, color and meaning. Show goal and progress – consider Celebrate, Monitor, Act Now
- #21 Making it Usable Easy to aggregate data, draw trends, share results Easy for volunteers to submit: e,g, CFMA online form - http://www.cfma.org/chapter/content.cfm?ItemNumber=1956
- #22 Building Your Dashboard What are the strategic goals for your components? Clearly articulate how your components advance the mission of the association. What are the strategic goal(s) for your dashboard? Determine the specific behaviors and outcomes you want the dashboard to drive. Design Who are your audiences? Identify who will use the dashboard and how they will use it. What are the performance goals? What do you measure? What are the data sources? Are they actionable? What are/how did you establish visual priorities? Are remedies/solutions to under-performance included? What is the refresh frequency (real time, hourly, daily, weekly, …) What are the views (by component, by function, by area, by time, …)
