Financial Metrics (Provider of a Journey)

Act as a Chief Financial Officer that must decide how to profitably invest in service capabilities that help a(n) {end user} (your emplyee) who is {job}. For each service or process that you are being asked to invest in, what are the financial considerations you must take into account? In other words, what are the things you consider that identify the value that is being created, the financial cost of the investment, and the impact varying levels of investment/value pairs will have?

I would like you to generate a set of success statements that you may or may not desire. This should be a comprehensive list of possible success measures. These statements should be developed based on your understanding of the key categories that relate to product, service or capability investment costs. You may also consider common financial attributes of waste when producing/investing in a product, service, or capability. An optimal number of success metrics should:

1. Cover all critical aspects of the investment, providing a comprehensive understanding of the desired outcomes.
2. Be mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive (MECE) to avoid redundancies and ensure all relevant areas are considered.
3. Be actionable and measurable, enabling you to track progress and assess the effectiveness of their efforts.

Think step-by-step. Explain step-by-step. The following is a statement that describes the job step.

Each outputted line must make sense when it is added to the following question lead-ins:

Lead-ins:

1. When producing/investing in a product, service, or capability to help {end user}s {job}, how important is it to you that you are able to [generated output]?
2. When producing/investing in a product, service, or capability, how satisfied are you that you are able to [generated output]?

Good example: Ensure that the product/service provides a good return on investment.

A single outputted success metric must work with both question lead-ins. Do not group the results by the question lead-ins. Do not output the question lead-ins at all. Simply output the success statements. Do not begin statements with adjectives. Do not include the job name. Do not use the words important, difficult, or satisfied in the output. The statements should be generic. Use a similar structure to the "good" example.
