25). This is applicable in the situation nowadays. Most people today work for money and some organisations use a key performance indicator (KPI) to measure whether the workers should get promotions. Staffs in the organisations have to set their own KPI which is measurable and KPI can remind the staffs what they have to do to achieve it. However, the better performance is sometimes set as a new standard for the next evaluation. Indicator of some of my works is how long I take time to complete that work.
