In many organizations, the journey to become data-driven is fraught with challenges—distrust in metrics, fear of being measured, and resistance to change. This session explores how to navigate these hurdles, drawing from experiences in manufacturing and higher education to build confidence in data and reporting. Learn practical strategies for overcoming skepticism, fostering a culture that embraces performance measurement, and designing dashboards that drive action. Join this session for a journey through "Metrics Land," which will be informative, as well as entertaining!
