Data for understanding impact: defining the best strategy for your work
Matter of Focus
Join impact expert Dr Sarah Morton to explore how to use data, feedback and evidence in meaningful ways that support learning, improvement and better decision-making.
Sarah will share practical ways to bring together and analyse different kinds of data in real-world settings, particularly in settings where there is no dedicated capacity to help you with this.
Whether you want to improve your current approach or build a new framework from scratch, you’ll leave with clear tools and insights to turn data into meaningful action.
Discover how to:
- collect and use data, evidence and feedback purposely, in a way that reflects the people important to your work.
- define your organisations data and evidence needs by focusing on what you most need to understand.
- align data with organisational priorities.
- assess the strength of your evidence.
- stop paying attention to data that you don’t need.
- get your team into a ‘good enough’ mindset so you can learn and improve.
Sarah will share a practical framework for streamlining data and understanding change and some simple approaches to using data, evidence and feedback. We will give you pointers for going on your own data improvement journey.
