Scaling Social Impact with Artificial Intelligence & Stage Based Metrics: The Progressive Outcomes Scale Logic Model (POSLM)

Start Measuring Human Progress.What if we measured social impact with the same rigor used to track financial returns?For decades, the social sector has been stuck in the "Output Trap"-counting beds filled and meals served without proving if lives actually improved.
