the strongest data-driven organizations all live by the motto “if you can’t measure it, you can’t fix it” (a motto I learned from one of the best operations people I’ve worked with). This mindset gives you a fantastic ability to deliver value to your company by:

Instrumenting and collecting as much data as you can. Whether you’re doing business intelligence or building products, if you don’t collect the data, you can’t use it.
Measuring in a proactive and timely way. Are your products, and strategies succeeding? If you don’t measure the results, how do you know?
Getting many people to look at data. Any problems that may be present will become obvious more quickly — “with enough eyes all bugs are shallow.”
Fostering increased curiosity about why the data has changed or is not changing. In a data-driven organization, everyone is thinking about the data.
