Explaining the Model
THE FACTORS IN A LEARNING CONTINUUM

different measures used to provide
insight and a different lens to enable
understanding of root cause problems to
enable outcomes.
Yet
Measure spread - Are measures supporting
the delivery to end outcome, are you
ensuring that no measure becomes a single
determinant of success?
There is an overemphasis on project
measurement at the sacrifice of project
feedback and value delivery.
