Final Thoughts… “What gets measured, gets done.
If you don’t measure results, you can’t tell success from failure. If you can’t recognize failure, you can’t correct it. If you can’t see success, you can’t reward it. If you can’t see success, you can’t learn from it.”
From “Reinventing Government” by David Osborne & Ted Gaebler
