Example Reflection: Learning Launch

Challenge:

I am a management student and during my internship, I am assigned with a project to identify  all the key performance metrics to be measure, which can affect the business. I have to  prepare an automated dashboard showing all the KPIs, the data shown should be interactive  depending on different dimension example Date, frequency, Region, Brand, Product etc. The  dashboard will help the management to take actionable steps. The project needs to be deliver  in 1 month. The project scope includes communicating with different stakeholders, assuming  the KPI that affect more on the business, understanding their calculation methodology and  prepare prototype of dashboard. After the test run and successful approval from the  leadership, development of integrated dashboard will take place.

Selection:

Learning launch is the apt process to carry out this task. Stating and designing the assumed  KPIs for the prototype dashboard and then after testing continuing the actual development.

Application:

Firstly, I focus majorly on communicating with managers and the stakeholders of different  functions. Understanding how the workflow happens in the business. Depending on the  importance, criticality and urgency of major metrics calculated in the business, I would  assume the KPI that can affect the business performance. Based on these key assumptions, I  will collate all the raw data and prepare a calculation methodology of KPI. I will design the  dashboard basis assumption of different reporting dimensions like Region, Date, Frequency,  Brand etc.

Using these key assumptions, the prototype created will be launch to do the test runs. The  test will determine the interactive-ness of KPIs with different dimensions, the colour schema,  placeholders of metrics/slicers, and relevance of the KPIs projected.

If the prototype will not get approved, the feedback provided by the senior leadership will be  implemented and a new prototype will be created. If the prototype will get approved by  senior leadership, I will continue the development of actual integrated dashboard.

Insight/Approach:

By applying the learning launch tool in this project, I will be able to identify all the key  assumptions, by understanding the business from the stakeholders I will be able to prioritise  those KPIs which has major impact on performance. I have designed the launch prototype to  design those assumptions. A more agile approach of working on feedback, tasks and  workflows will improve the design. A continuous interaction with stakeholders and feedback  from leadership will help in incorporating the desired functionality needed in the design.

By reviewing the insights from these test launches, I will be able to work towards the final  dashboard model.
