How do you calculate
your avoided

How do you know the change
is attributable to you? And
how do you track it? How do
you know that it won’t cause
new negative behaviour?
How can youextrapolateyour data?
Is it better to go for
breadth or depth?
Is it possible to eliminate all
negatives? What should the
ultimate ambition be?
Has it made a difference?Stories of how the approach haschanged decision-making
And more…
