From this list, select three financial and three nonfinancial metrics that are the most important and explain their significance (net revenue, demographics, customer relations). Where will you find, and how will you gather, the identified metrics you need to develop your assessment? Be sure to identify each metric as external or internal.
Provide a description for each selected metric (total of six descriptions). Depending on the data provided, how can each metric affect the plans for the new clinic? Assuming the satellite clinic will open, how will you set up a monitoring and adjustment program? List the required steps. Why is a monitoring, evaluating, and adjusting strategy essential to overall organizational success for the new clinic?
