EVIDENCE-BASED MANAGEMENT

Evidence-based practice is about improving decision making through the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of the best available evidence from multiple sources.

Sources of evidence might include academic research but other forms of information are equally valid and important. For example, internal business data, personal experience and judgement, and the views, values and concerns of those the decision affects. Sarah adopts this approach because it represents a pragmatic way to make better decisions that significantly improve business performance.

Sarah is a Fellow of the Center for Evidence-Based Management (CEBMa), a non-profit member organisation dedicated to promoting evidence-based practice in the field of management. The CEBMa website provides very useful and accessible information on this subject: www.cebma.org.
