• It’s not the data, it’s how you use it that matters

• Measurement effects behavior

• Measure outcomes, not output

• Don’t compare teams or individuals

Reminders

• Correlation does not imply causation

• Past performance does not guarantee future results

“If you torture the data long enough, it will confess.”
