In this episode, Mike iarossi talks about how we should be thinking about the creation of our business metrics. When we think about how to create metrics or measures we should first be considering the point of view from our present facing metrics. 

He explains how past metrics should connect with present metrics which should connect to future facing metrics and so on. And each metric should be composed of different dimensions such as employees, operations, or customers, as an example.

Mike talks about how our current COVID metrics seem to be primarily backward facing, focusing on the number of positive cases. He then goes on to talk about how to create lead indicators and how to identify COVID measures that could better help us predict and address the number of positive cases.
