Make revenue as your ENTIRE team's north-star metric. Let's say, 10crore revenue target for FY2024-25. Explain to the team where this money is coming from. Could be from product unit sales, your service subscription by clients, etc. Then define what each team's goals are by working the numbers backwards. Example, to get 10cr do we do 10 projects that's worth 1cr each or sell 100 products of 10lakh each. To get these bottom of the funnel metric achieved, how much demand must be generated in the MOF and TOF. TAT for logistics and projects team which can satisfy this Target and so on. Focus on measuring output than input. What good is a sales team that calls 100 people but gets 0 demand. 10 quality calls for 1 demand is great too. So you have to help them segment the market and build SOPs. That's how I'd start to build a productive team than sit on management tools.

Tumhare hi metrics mei koi gadbad hain ki nahi dekh lo pehle. Metrics should align with your business goals. Define clear KPIs for each role and use tools that provide reports on these metrics. Microsoft Power BI will help you visualize their daily data and track performance against those KPIs over time. That’s what I do.

Tools like Jira are excellent for software development teams, providing detailed insights into workflow and bottlenecks. For general tasks, Notion is also versatile and can be customized to fit various productivity tracking needs. Hope it helps 😛

Bhai just be a lill careful not to rely solely on quantitative metrics. Productivity is not just about the number of tasks completed but also the quality of work and collaboration within the team. Regular check-ins and feedback sessions can provide a more holistic view.

Using project management tools is a great start. Implementing time-tracking software like Toggl or Clockify can help you see how much time is spent on different tasks. It’s important to balance this with trust and not create a sense of constant surveillance.

There are several tools out there like Asana, Trello, and Monday.com that can help track tasks and productivity. Assign tasks, set deadlines, and monitor progress, And get a clearer picture of how your team is performing.
