Gene, Looks like you found value in this course and will be able to apply your learnings. I suggest that performance measures must have a direct correlation to the business objectives as well as to education measures. Students that learn and then can find jobs or advance academically are your best advertisement.. Good luck!! Ron Ron Obstfeld

Outcome or Process?

Hello Ashley, Good answer. I would also suggest that costs be a consideration. Sometimes when you map a job in that level of detail it can become apparent that although a good idea, the cost-benefit will not support moving ahead. Thank you for you participation and your thoughtful post. Ron Obstfeld
