A Compelling Read

The Tyranny of Metrics

Unquestionably one of my more compelling reads this year.

A reminder that while data of course has value - for the measurement of the quantifiably measurable - so much of what’s most important, most meaningful and most valuable defies distillation into an empirical data point…

A sense of clarity
A sense of purpose
A feeling of confidence
Of being inspired
Of desire
Of motivation
And more

Show me a number that can quantify any one of these.

Patrick McGoohan in “The Prisoner” had it right.

I employed Simon for one-on-one presentation skills coaching, as I was required to speak at my company's annual conference. With Simon's advice, coaching and guidance, I gained valuable knowledge and confidence which made a huge difference to, and significantly improved, my delivery on the day. Simon is a great coach, and I will certainly consider using his services within my business going forward.
