What is a strategic or executive dashboard?

< 1 min read

A tactical dashboard is specifically designed for mid-level managers.
Its purpose is to monitor departmental KPIs and improve performance.
It focuses on short- to medium-term goals like monthly sales, quarterly targets, or campaign performance.
For example, in one project, a sales tactical dashboard showed:
Region-wise revenue
Target vs actual comparison
Top and bottom-performing products
It supports decision-making such as reallocating resources or adjusting strategies.
Unlike strategic dashboards (high-level) or operational dashboards (real-time tracking), tactical dashboards balance summary and analysis.
