Who is Measuring Success?
Measuring Success creates quantitative performance tools and models to help managers and boards enhance their organizational effectiveness. Measuring Success’ focus is in leveraging data tools, quantitative analytics, and consulting to help organizations move from anecdotal to data-driven decision making. Just as evidence-based, data-driven approaches are transforming the sports (see Moneyball), health care (see NYT Magazine November 11, 2009), and numerous other industries, Measuring Success has been an innovator of this approach in the not-for-profit sphere. Growing out of our founder’s experiences at McKinsey & Company, Kellogg Business School, Harvard’s Kennedy and Business School, and as Director of Strategy for an international non-profit organization, Measuring Success was founded in 2003.
