Cheating

Today has been a welcome and much needed slower day for me to be able to catch up on a number of projects. I've spent a large portion of the day reading articles for our health policy project, specifically from the Advisory Board and Deloitte. One of the nice things about using these tools is that the analysis has already been done. All I need to do is look at their assumptions, evaluate the recommendations, and present it to management in a meaningful and applicable way. It saves incredible amounts of time, especially considering that I'm involved in multiple projects and don't have very much time to collect data, analyze it, formulate a hypothesis, and write up a full report. It feels like I'm "cheating" at times, but it's definitely better than reinventing the wheel.
