Dashboard Design Brief

Act as an analytics product manager.

Audience for the dashboard: [WHO_USES_IT]
Decisions they need to make: [DECISIONS]
Cadence: [DAILY / WEEKLY / AD-HOC]
Available data: [DATA]

Design the dashboard:
1. The single "north star" question the dashboard answers
2. The top-3 metrics that earn the prime real estate (with definitions)
3. Supporting metrics arranged by importance, not by what's easy to chart
4. The 3 segments / cuts the user will need most
5. Suggested chart type for each metric (and what to avoid)
6. Default time range and comparison (vs. last week, vs. plan, etc.)
7. Alerts or threshold callouts to surface anomalies
8. What NOT to include (and why)

End with a 1-paragraph "how to use this dashboard" intro the team will read on first open.
