The impact of the Results-Based Accountability concept has been recognized by two of the country’s greatest leaders, Barack Obama and Bill Gates. Results Leadership Group CEO, Adam Luecking and Director of the Promise Neighborhoods Institute, Michael McAfee, explore the surge of this approach to effective program implementation through clear goals, measures, and feedback in their blog post with the Promise Neighborhoods Institute.
In his recent Wall Street Journal op-ed Gates testifies to the value of setting goals to measure progress and drive change. More recently, President Obama specifically addressed the need to use data to support clear education to career decisions for students through the use of a College Scorecard. Similar to RBA, these leaders have brought the importance of goals, data, and Measurable Impact to the forefront in several aspects of everyday life and the impact that nonprofit organizations are able to achieve.
