We were recently invited to give the keynote presentation for the 2026 Fort Benning Human Performance Symposium. In the process of putting our talk together, we solidified our "core fore" concepts that help us filter through everything going on in the military human performance space. This led us to our main argument, which is that we should aim for "data informed" but not "data driven" to avoid falling into some common traps.

Several people who couldn't attend the symposium asked if there was a way to listen to the talk, so we thought we'd just publish it as a podcast episode.

Key topics we cover include: Nazareth Syndrome, Goodhart's Law, Mcnamara's Fallacy, and Hammond's Corollary (yes it's named after Drew). From there we dive into the challenge of defining "lethality" and what data can and can't do to measure it.

Special shout out to SGT Donovan Saulsberry whose incredible voice you'll hear when he introduces us. Apparently he's the unofficial (or maybe official?) voice of Fort Benning. Let us know whether we should hire him to record a new intro for our podcast...
