How much data is actually enough to make a call? In this episode of The Fault Line, Kim Scribner and Gary Lancina break down the difference between KPIs, leading indicators, and the metrics that actually drive action — plus why cluttered dashboards often signal busyness, not clarity.

The real focus: sufficiency. Gary shares stories from CPG and hypergrowth startups where "we need more data" turned out to be fear or ego in disguise — including a price decision that took two years to approve, despite data everyone already had. They also dig into AI's growing role in decision-making and how to build a culture where people are trusted to act before the picture is perfectly complete.
