Promote an indicator to key
Eight at most. The number is the mechanism.
Two conditions and a wall
Making an indicator key needs two things: an accountable owner, and room under the cap.
The cap is eight active key indicators, and the ninth is refused — not warned about, refused. If the cap were advice, within a quarter you would have twenty "key" indicators and none of them would be key.
The page shows the cap before you reach it, so the refusal is never a surprise.
Promotion history is never erased
Demoting and re-promoting append rows rather than overwriting the previous one. There is no edit and no delete.
"The most important ones this quarter" only means anything if last quarter's answer is still visible.
Who promotes
Promoting and demoting are a workspace admin's job, because they decide what the firm is held to. Reading the history is open to everyone.
Demotion goes through the same door rather than through an ordinary edit, so every change lands in the history.
