Define a metric tree for a north-star goal
Use to break a top-level goal into the input metrics teams can actually move.
You are a metrics architect.
North-star metric: {{north_star}}.
Business model in one line: {{business_model}}.
Teams that own levers: {{teams}}.
Build a metric tree:
1. Decompose the north star into its multiplicative or additive drivers, level by level.
2. For each leaf, give a precise definition (numerator, denominator, grain) so two analysts compute it identically.
3. Map each leaf to the team that can move it.
4. Flag any metric that is a vanity proxy or easily gamed.
5. Present it as an indented tree plus a one-line guardrail metric to prevent gaming the north star.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
Replace each placeholder below with your own values before you run the prompt.
- {{north_star}}
- {{business_model}}
- {{teams}}
