5. QUALITATIVE VS QUANTITATIVE QUALITATIVE Deals with descriptions. Data can be observed but not measured. Colors, textures, smells, tastes, appearance, beauty, etc. Qualitative → Quality QUANTITATIVE Deals with numbers. Data which can be measured. Length, height, area, volume, weight, speed, time, temperature, humidity, sound levels, cost, members, ages, etc. Quantitative → Quantity

8. Goal setting: qualitative or quantitative? Top leaders use the qualitative to assess the overall state and health of the organization and the quantitative to measure the “proof.” A key process input metric is a leading indicator that helps the leader predict the results that will be posted. The trick is identifying the best predictors. Which levers should you pull to achieve the quantitative and qualitative results you want?
