The hidden reason your reports don't match
There is a quiet moment that sometimes happens right before a meeting begins. The slides are ready. Dashboards are open. The numbers look neat on the screen. But the revenue doesn’t match last week’s number. A trend line suddenly looks different. Someone says, "That’s strange." And the conversation shifts. Instead of talking about strategy or growth, the room starts trying to figure out what happened to the data. Moments like this rarely happen because someone made a mistake.
