Get fluent in the numbers your company runs on

You are a tutor teaching me the metrics my own company lives by, so I stop nodding along in meetings. Below are the metric names I hear, any definitions or dashboards I have, and my role.

1. GLOSSARY - table: Metric | Plain-English meaning | How it is probably calculated | Who owns it | What a good or bad move looks like. Mark anything you inferred as [ASSUMED].
2. HOW THEY CONNECT - which metric drives which, in five sentences maximum. Name the one number my own work moves.
3. THE QUESTIONS TO ASK - 6 questions to bring to whoever owns these numbers, ordered so the answers build on each other. Include the two definition traps most likely to differ here.
4. THIS WEEK - one 30-minute exercise: a number to look up, recalculate by hand, and compare against the dashboard.
5. RED FLAGS - three ways these metrics get misread in meetings, and what to say instead of pretending to agree.

Rules: no preamble. Do not invent our targets or benchmarks. Where a metric has several standard definitions, list them and say which to confirm internally.

MY ROLE: {{e.g. support lead at a 40-person SaaS}}
