Why It Matters

What people experience is not always what systems measure.

  • 01

    Organisations are often optimised around their own processes.

  • 02

    Conventional surveys ask questions defined by institutions.

  • 03

    Complaints capture failures but often miss unmet aspirations.

  • 04

    People may experience the same barrier without knowing others do too.

  • 05

    Institutional data frequently measures outputs rather than lived outcomes.

  • 06

    Responsibility may be fragmented across many parties.

  • 07

    Leaders may lack trustworthy evidence about what is not working.

Make It Better seeks to create a more human starting point: what matters, what prevents progress and whether the response helped.
