“My first evaluation assignment taught me something I have carried into every project since. The organization was not failing to make a difference. It was failing to see it. Good people were working hard on the strength of instinct alone, and instinct is a fragile thing to build a program on and an impossible thing to fund. What they needed was not a report telling them what they had done wrong. They needed a system that let them see their own work clearly, and one they had helped build so they would still trust it long after I left. That is what we do at Miven3. We do not hand organizations conclusions. We sit with them until the evidence is something they own.”
