## Prompt

```text
Help me design a one-page scorecard my leadership team reviews every week.

**Business model:** [e.g. "B2B SaaS", "marketplace", "manufacturing", "services"]
**Company goals this year:** [TARGETS]
**Metrics we track today:** [LIST, and where they come from]
**Problems with current reporting:** [e.g. "too many metrics", "we see problems a month late", "numbers don't match across teams"]
**Leadership team roles:** [LIST]

Design:
1. 10-15 metrics total, balanced across:
   - Lagging outcomes (e.g. revenue, margin, cash).
   - Leading indicators that predict them weeks ahead (e.g. pipeline created, activation, on-time delivery).
   - Health metrics (e.g. customer satisfaction, employee attrition, quality).
2. For each metric: definition, formula, data source, owner on the leadership team, weekly target, and red/yellow/green thresholds.
3. Explain the causal chain: which leading indicators drive which outcomes for my business model.
4. Metrics to drop from current reporting and why.
5. A weekly review routine: how to spend 15 minutes on the scorecard, focusing only on reds and trends, with the owner explaining and proposing a fix.
6. Common traps: vanity metrics, metrics no one can influence, definitions that differ by team, and changing targets mid-quarter.

Return the scorecard as a table: Metric | Type | Definition | Owner | Target | Green | Yellow | Red | Source. Don't invent targets; propose ranges for me to set and mark them [SET].
