This week’s “Results Indicators Definition” should be a mandatory solution for any team or company.

By definition, a result indicator is a metric that measures the quantitative results of business actions to help companies track progress and reach organizational goals.

There are different types of indicators: direct indicators and indirect indicators.

On the other hand, the indirect indicators are mainly used when qualitative states of affairs are being described, such as changed living circumstances, changed attitudes, or changes in behavior.
