SBDC: Know Your Numbers, Own Your Power — Data-Driven Decision Making for Scale

This session empowers business owners to make smarter, faster decisions by leveraging the right data. Participants will learn the difference between vanity metrics and true power metrics, how to build a simple KPI dashboard, and how numbers can quickly surface both weaknesses and opportunities. The training also demonstrates how data-driven processes can systemize decision-making beyond the founder, creating a stronger, more scalable organization. -The difference between vanity metrics and power metrics -How to build a simple KPI dashboard -How numbers reveal weaknesses and opportunities -How to systemize decision-making beyond the founder Presenter, Michael Watyoka; Business Consultant, Executive Vice President & Board Member, Maryland Writers Association; Author of Builders Who Scale
