Without clear, written and agreed KPIs, clarity of your role and your deliverables, lots of things are uncertain.

And when there’s a lack of clarity, unfortunately people fill in the blanks for themselves.

Your job description and KPIs should help you outline the following:

Who are you responsible for?
What specifically are you responsible for?
What are your deliverables?
What measures are you being judged on?
How will you be judged at your next performance review?

Clear KPIs Help You Get Promoted Faster

One thing is certain:

The people who excel in their roles have super-clear job descriptions and KPIs.

They know what’s expected of them.

They know how their performance will be measured.

And this gives them confidence, direction and a clear sense of purpose…

As well as leverage – because when they do perform, they have a paper trail record of how and where they’ve hit their targets.

And that means they have a big opportunity to then negotiate and ask for more of what they want.

Wouldn’t your life be easier, and more profitable, if you had a clear role description and tangible KPIs?

100% it would!

Every Role Should Have A Clear Description and Clear KPIs

And if you don’t have these measures in place, it’s time you took charge and defined them pronto.

I’m sure you agree they’re essential to your progress right?

P.S. In our group coaching course, The Career Accelerator Game Plan, one of the first steps is defining your role and KPIs (key deliverables).

Honestly, without these in place you’re just drifting, with no clear purpose or end destination.

And I don’t want that for you at all!

I know you know this already…

But every role you take on should have:

* a clear role
* defined measures of success AND
* an exit strategy

If you need to clarify some – or all – of these essential markers…

Start getting that clarity…
