What Gets Measured Gets Changed

Turning Complex Data into Action

The world’s biggest challenges aren’t always the hardest to solve: they’re the hardest to understand. Michelle takes the numbers people ignore, dismiss, or tune out, and makes them impossible not to act on. She’s done it with carbon footprints, the least engaging dataset there is, and the same approach works on product metrics, financial decisions, learning outcomes, or health data. If she can make people care about carbon, imagine what she does with your numbers.
