I was inspired to write the following active information post after a particularly painful conference call:

“That got me wondering, are we in IT so busy managing everyone else’s data, that we forget to use data for own decisions?”

via Enterprise Devs: don’t just manage data, use it – Input Output.

As March progressed, I found myself asking “What does the data tell us”?” in numerous design sessions.

It ended up being an extremely effective way to refocus otherwise circuitous conversations. Try it.
