Knowing your return on investment (ROI) after a pilot or prototype is key for understanding if they were successful. Remember, there are two types of ROIs:

  • Quantitative returns: Did you make money? Save money? Lose money?
  • Qualitative returns: If we didn’t earn anything, then what did we learn?

 

Also important for measuring success is the after-action review. Meet with your strategists, talk through what you thought would happen, what actually happened and what you learned. Your goal is to accelerate your learning curve by fostering an intentional and real understanding of what needs to continue and what needs to change.
