Hi Judi! Let me be the first at NTEN to welcome you to the NTC this year. I'm pretty excited we managed to avoid Passover this year and get you back!

Judi - I think we talked about you all day. I think Meghan and Steve will have to check with your calendar FIRST next year!

Best,

Chris -

As always, fantastic thought provoking post. You wanted to talk about measurement, so here goes...

I love measurement. I track everything all the time, graph it, chart it, measure it against every other data I can find. That's because I'm a goal-oriented person.

The tough part is that success isn't always measured in numbers. So you can be commenting more, posting more, and getting more comments, but still not actually be heading toward your goal. Here's an old example from the nonprofit sector.

You can hand out more eyeglasses each year, but are you really helping people see better?

So in terms of measurement, I think it's important to make sure that what you measure isn't geared toward productivity, but success. They aren't always the same thing.
