Social Impact Measurement Use Among Canadian Impact InvestorsPurpose Capital
Canadian impact investors vary in their use of social impact metrics. While most investors use metrics during due diligence to select investments aligned with their goals, few are able to collect outcome data and rely primarily on output metrics. Investors also differ in the scale of analysis, with most monitoring at the individual investment level and few at the portfolio level. There is no single preferred measurement framework, but tools include theories of change, GIIRS, IRIS, and customized systems. Investors see value in metrics but face challenges regarding comparability, standardization, and costs. Recommendations focus on collaboration to reduce costs and enhance understanding and use of metrics.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
