Unit Assignment
In a well-organized and detailed essay, identify a handful of leading metrics that you think your organization is using or could implement to help with the continuous improvement efforts of the company's management systems. Reflect on the key risks faced by the workforce. Include the following information:
· Describe each metric with regard to its method of determination, established target, and time duration upon which it is based (are these quarterly goals, yearly, bi-annual, or other?)
· Describe why you think these indicators are, or could be, helpful to your organization. Keep in mind that you may use this information in your final recommendation report in Unit VIII. Your response should be a minimum of 700 words in length.
You are required to use at least your textbook as source material for your response. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations.
