Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E) Meta-Skill

Overview

Use this meta-skill after the plan is built to convert it into a measurable management system. It defines KPIs, reporting rhythms, ownership, and review structures so the plan can be run, not just written.

Use When

• Use when translating a completed or near-complete plan into execution monitoring.
• Use when funders, management, or boards need KPI dashboards and reporting logic.
• Use when accountability and review cadence matter as much as strategy design.

Do Not Use When

• Do not use before the strategy, operations, and financial model are stable enough to measure.
• Do not create KPI lists with no clear strategic owner or review cadence.
• Do not confuse monitoring with retrospective narrative reporting only.
