The dashboard in your car helps you focus your attention on what matters most, like: how much gas you have, your water and oil levels, where your next turn is via your GPS and how fast you're going.

Now, I'll show you how to create a Performance Dashboard using my simple three-step goal setting guidelines process that is easily remembered with the acronym: R.P.M.

2. P. Place Responses, Create Headlines & Prioritize
3. M. Metrics Are Added & Interview Questions Selected
The best way to create a Position Dashboard would be to include three to eight subject matter experts (SMEs) who have a vested interested in the success of the Position. (I facilitate these types of discussions.) But the main objective here is to just have a Performance Dashboard for every Position. If you can't get a group of SMEs together, do it by yourself.
Let me walk you through how to use these goal setting guidelines by showing you how I created a performance dashboard for a client for a Technical Manager position. Watch this step-by-step video, now:
Sample TriMetrix Job Benchmark/Template and Sample Candidate Debrief
If you are not open to using assessments, but want to create a template for hiring,
like I mention in the video, I show you how to do this in my book. More info here.
