Director, Global Supply Chain PMO

In the #pmo world, we emphasize the importance of defining success to effectively measure projects. This involves concentrating on outcomes. My son reminded me of this when sharing his thoughts ahead of running the annual Downers Grove Thanksgiving Day 5k. We can assess our current individual performance, compare it to our previous results, or compare to others in the same race. 👟   Outcomes are meaningful. ✅ Top 6% ✅ Top 10% ✅ #1 out of 6 ☑ #3 out of 13   The 2023 Illinois Report Card has been released, indicating that District 58 students demonstrated both substantial growth and proficiency (Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR)).   Celebrate the victories: ➕ In Math, District 58 students outperformed 94% of Illinois school districts. 📖 In English Language Arts (ELA), District 58 students outperformed 90% of Illinois school districts. 🥇 Among the six elementary school districts feeding into District 99 for high school, District 58 achieved the highest proficiency in both Math and ELA. (ELA proficiency improved from third place last year.)   Areas to enhance: 🥉 District 58, classified as a large elementary district, ranks third in both Math and ELA proficiency when compared to all 13 DuPage County large elementary districts.   Excited about our approach boosting transparency and accountability. Eager to sustain this improvement trend with the Team over the next three years!
