Investment, ROI and currency according to SMPL #2

Open smplminded opened 4 years ago

I see the word investment mentioned a lot in the SMPL Guide! Is SMPL all about money and profits?

SMPL places people over process in every regard. This is key in the concept of investing because the currency for measuring a return on time, energy and resources invested by an individual or a group of collaborators is a matter of agreement among those involved and impacted. What SMPL does stress is that the individual(s) accepting the accountabilities define their currency early on and revisit its definition continuously to ensure that it is still relevant and indicative. In some cases, actual dollars and cents will be the currency to measure the return, while in others, audience size, or trees saved.

The investment accountability in the SMPL framework acknowledges that a virtuous economic arrangement among the accountables and the impacted is a key component for reaching a sustained model.
