Quantitative measures include improvements in profitability or shareholder value through increased revenues, cost savings or both, realized through the successful implementation of the treasury program. Qualitative measures include an evaluation of the major problem that was resolved and its impact on the corporation or institution. Highlight any improvements in company operations and explain the benchmarks of success you used and how you performed against them.
