Data missing
Can you do it? Not, do you have the skills to do it. Not, do you have the equipment. Not, do you have the staff. But,…
Sometimes there’s some data missing. A key fact. An indicator. A number or a name or a something that make the difference between guessing and knowing. The data exists, somewhere.
Two choices.
Get on with it anyway – triangulate what you know, put it together way a best guess, go from there. That’ll get you going and you can fill in the leaps of faith whenever you find some more actual data.
Find it – put the work into building the systems you need to surface the data. Maybe it’s nothing more than a phone call, maybe it’s an entirely new arm of you MI, maybe it will take you three months. And when you know, you know.
The third choice – acting blindly without a care, blundering on regardless – might work. Less of a choice … more of a gamble.
Skippy strategy: Active choices, eyes wide open, fill the gaps whenever you can.
