The Rokter Glossary
Canonical definitions for the terms that recur in our work on weekly KPI ownership, leadership cadence, and the systems that let execution run without the founder pushing.
- KPI ownership
- KPI ownership is the operating principle that every leadership-grade metric must have exactly one named human accountable for it, week by week, by name.
- The chase
- The chase is the recurring failure mode where leadership KPIs only get reported on when the founder personally pursues them — the diagnostic signature of a leadership team without a real weekly close.
- Weekly close
- A weekly close is the recurring leadership ritual where every KPI owner reports actuals, the team reviews variance, and any breaking commitment gets a named action and a name.
