    A Aesthetic design and visual appeal Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Including as much data as possible for comprehensiveness Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Prioritizing clarity and relevance of KPIs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Using advanced analytics to predict future sales trends Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Adding interactive elements like filters and drill-downs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The primary goal of a dashboard is to communicate critical information clearly and effectively. Including only the most relevant KPIs ensures the sales team can quickly understand performance and make informed decisions. Overloading with data or focusing too much on aesthetics can dilute the effectiveness of the dashboard. Option A : Visual appeal is important but secondary to clarity and relevance. Option B : Too much data overwhelms users and detracts from actionable insights. Option D : Predictive analytics is useful but not the main focus of a KPI dashboard. Option E : Interactivity enhances usability but must not compromise the dashboard’s clarity.
