Agree, objective performance data is not the only way and I appreciate your consideration and feedback on the information shared. Using broad brush strokes here to consider how performance data can inform impact measures.
I would counter that, Impact = Profit aligns directly with the Optimistic Vision
Q: If not the vision, what do you feel we should align on?
I 100% support funding work to deliver impact, just with funding tied to impact (results) as opposed to work (time)
EXAMPLE
Consider the results of work to create, publish and promote video(s) that generates a 50,000 OP increase to voteable supplyPerson A takes 12 hours to create one video to achieve the result
Person B takes three months to create 10 videos (480 hrs) to achieve the resultAll other factors /results aside and on the basis that Impact = Profit should person B be rewarded 468x or even 9x more than person A for delivering the same results?
Why?
You also offered the following example, which for me highlights the distinction I draw above between
work vs impact | quantity vs quality
imo the choice here is clear for Collective Intent 4 Governance Accessibility because expected results are indicated
Conversely, the resulting impact might not be so clear for Intent 3 Raising Awareness of the Optimistic Vision. However, average time watched is a more effective measure of performance than views.
In terms of creator rewards which results are more likely to correlate to higher impact
- y people that watch a video for an average of 1 of 30 minutes (03%)
- y people who watch a video for an average 20 of 30 minutes (66%)
I recognise that having built a career serving clients with success defined in terms of growth, performance, revenue and results that I am biased towards measures that I understand. Quantitative is my go-to reference. I’m not against qualitative or subjective measures, I’ve employed both but even there I revert to quantitative measures as a baseline to compare "apples with apples’
