16 Sigmafine “We used to argue over numbers. Now we have one place where we go to (SAP) where we get the official numbers for the Company” CIO of a major chemical company “It’s common to optimistically assume that data is clean, but that’s usually a very bad and costly assumption” John Carro, CIO of Unisys ** What if the numbers are Wrong?

24 Survival Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle: when the sun comes up, you'd better be running!
