Crafting Meaningful & Measurable Outcomes

Outcomes measurement is another tool, another language, for capturing and sharing your organization’s story. Unfortunately, in too many organizations, this work focuses on counting what’s easy to count instead of measuring what’s meaningful. In this workshop, we explore the purpose and types of outcomes, what makes an outcome meaningful and measurable, how to craft outcome statements, and strategies for measuring the more elusive outcomes.
