Yes, all those well paid C-level managers cannot handle multiple units so they require everyone to use one “easy to understand unit so that everything is easy to compare and micromanage”
- Someone 2y agoIf you want to decide which of several options is better, how do you propose doing that without using a single number? You can’t, in general, compare multi dimensional quantities.
- kiicia 2y agoI never said that idea of using single number is bad in itself, what is bad is forcing this single number and it's calculation on everyone else like it is some biblical revelation instead of calculating it ad-hoc (and modifying calculation as need requires), I can only hope c-suites can add and multiply as for if you can compare multidimensional quantities - of course you can do it and it is done every day with engineering and medical data, it's just tad more complicated than adding and multiplying so it's a no-go for c-suite you cannot expect people earning six figures to understand actual math, can you?
- MForster 2y agoIt's quite the opposite. This is intended for engineers to make good trade-off decisions as a rule of thumb without financial micromanaging.
