1
00:00:00,420 --> 00:00:04,190
So now I'm going to have a bit of a digression but it won't make sense later.
2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:07,770
But I wanted to talk a bit about leading vs. lagging indicators.
3
00:00:07,770 --> 00:00:09,180
Now if you are in.
4
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:13,620
Well I don't know in certain industries like product management or something like that then you might
5
00:00:13,620 --> 00:00:17,450
have heard about these already leading vs. let lagging indicators.
6
00:00:17,460 --> 00:00:21,000
Sorry but if not I want to get into it a bit.
7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:28,260
So what are they leading risk is lagging indicators are two types of indicators that deal with whatever
8
00:00:28,260 --> 00:00:32,210
it might be you're dealing with a service or product or here it will be for networking actually.
9
00:00:32,340 --> 00:00:36,570
Because usually what happens is success is measured later on in time.
10
00:00:36,570 --> 00:00:41,170
So for networking it'll be the number of clients who get the deals you know the money you make.
11
00:00:41,190 --> 00:00:43,400
That's generally how you measure success.
12
00:00:43,470 --> 00:00:47,600
But if you're going to these networking events that's going to happen a lot later on right.
13
00:00:47,610 --> 00:00:53,220
You might meet some people and then two weeks down the line whoever you meet said hey you said you are
14
00:00:53,220 --> 00:00:57,080
a graphic designer right look I there's someone I'm dealing with who needs graphic design you think
15
00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:02,030
you might be available you're like yeah sure you talk to that person go back and forth a bit you know
16
00:01:02,100 --> 00:01:06,480
maybe it works out maybe it doesn't it gets delayed later on it does work out you start working for
17
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:11,190
them have a job that lasts three four months and then you get paid in the meantime almost a year has
18
00:01:11,190 --> 00:01:15,690
passed and before you can actually measure if this was a successful event or not.
19
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:21,120
So that's why it's called a lagging indicator generally lagging indicator means output while a leading
20
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:28,180
indicator is input and that's why it's more interesting if you want to avoid this lag and having to
21
00:01:28,180 --> 00:01:35,770
wait to measure the success of attending an event or what type of event to attend and what was successful
22
00:01:35,770 --> 00:01:36,780
and what wasn't.
23
00:01:36,910 --> 00:01:41,950
And if you want avoid the lag then what you do is you find leading indicators.
24
00:01:41,950 --> 00:01:47,350
And so what our leading indicators like I said they are input so they're going to be a bit different
25
00:01:47,380 --> 00:01:52,450
and sometimes a bit of an approximation but it's a lot more useful when you want to measure success
26
00:01:52,900 --> 00:02:00,840
right away so if you want to measure something right away and you're talking about networking events
27
00:02:00,930 --> 00:02:06,060
and and these types of events that you're going to attend then one of the ways you can do it.
28
00:02:06,060 --> 00:02:09,300
One of the ways that I do is I'll tell myself ahead of time.
29
00:02:09,300 --> 00:02:09,500
OK.
30
00:02:09,510 --> 00:02:14,220
When I attend this event I'm going to get five business cards 10 business cards whatever it might be
31
00:02:14,490 --> 00:02:19,220
as long as I get 10 different business cards then I consider it a successful event.
32
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:23,880
I'll worry later on about getting the clients what types of clients they are about retaining clients
33
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,570
and and how how worth it.
34
00:02:26,580 --> 00:02:27,590
These business cards are.
35
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:32,280
But for now I just want X number of business cards because that's a good way to measure the event itself
36
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,360
and not worry too much about the lagging indicators.
37
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:40,620
Something else could be I will meet y number of people you know I'm going to meet whatever number of
38
00:02:40,620 --> 00:02:45,540
people I want or if this sounds a bit ambiguous to you you could also say I will shake a certain number
39
00:02:45,540 --> 00:02:51,030
of hands you know whatever works for you that you decide this will make a successful event and you can
40
00:02:51,030 --> 00:02:52,540
tweak this as time goes on.
41
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,580
And that's in fact what I did and now I usually do it.
42
00:02:55,890 --> 00:03:01,020
I measure it in terms of business cards because I can kind of hone in on the events that that I'm interested
43
00:03:01,020 --> 00:03:05,640
in and I know that it would be kind of useful and I know by and large whatever business cards I can
44
00:03:05,640 --> 00:03:10,170
get at these events will most likely be useful as long as I follow up with the correct way which I'll
45
00:03:10,170 --> 00:03:11,040
get into later on.
46
00:03:11,460 --> 00:03:14,530
So these little leading indicators can be quite useful.
47
00:03:14,550 --> 00:03:20,570
And my recommendation is to find certain leading indicators that can help you achieve your goals.
