Every modern startup possesses a metrics dashboard that the team and board revisit on a regular cadence (schedule). The even more recent trend is to post real-time versions of this dashboard up around the office, on large flat-screen monitors that are visible to everyone. This is part of the transparency that startups tend to favor and that many large enterprises find frightening. But as a coordinating device, it's extremely helpful. There can be no question about how well the company is doing when everyone shares the same set of facts.
