Lessons Learned
• Use “big picture” ideology to overcome faculty
criticism of data and data collection process.
• Empower faculty to draw conclusions from the
data rather than having those conclusions drawn
centrally.
• Connect the data to the value system of the
faculty.
• Share the data widely and openly.
• Be prepared to be evidence-based in all
initiatives.
