Advisor/Committee: 
Dr. Ricardo Valerdi and Prof. Debbie Nightingale
Degree Conferred: 
S.M., Technology and Policy, Engineering Systems Division (ESD); S.M., Aeronautics and Astronautics, Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, June 2009
Research Interest: 
This research seeks insight to the question - how can top-down and bottom-up metrics and measurement systems be leveraged to drive enterprise transformation?  To this end, three propositions are explored: (i) metrics and measurement systems drive transformation, (ii) employee engagement is a proxy to gauge transformation progress; and (iii) metric considerations enable enterprise transformation when systematically executed as part of a transformation roadmap.
