The Hard Skills What We Overlook When Measuring Organizational Success, with Mark L. Vincent
What if the way your organization measures success is quietly setting you up to fail? What if you've been measuring the wrong things to meet a strategic outcome. This episode unpacks how avoiding failure—not just chasing wins—might be the smarter strategic move, and a smart farmework for how to do it.
We’re not just challenging metrics—we’re rethinking meaning. In this conversation with Mark L. Vincent, we explore what organizations don’t measure, why qualitative signals matter more than they seem, and how chasing only what’s easy to quantify can quietly corrode strategic progress.
You’ll hear how seasoned leaders fall into traps by overlooking process in favor of performance, and how shifting your lens to include failure-prevention and systems-level insight can transform how you lead. This isn’t another conversation about KPIs—it’s a deep dive into the hidden architecture of impact. If you’ve ever been part of a strategy that looked good on paper but broke down in practice, this episode will name what you felt but couldn’t quite explain.
