Here's what the data actually says: All this focus on CRM activity metrics for sales teams is a distraction. We're drowning in dashboard-driven "insights" that don't actually tell us *why* deals are won or lost, just that someone logged a call. Let's start measuring outcomes, not just inputs.

This hints that while we need to focus on outcomes, understanding the "why" behind those outcomes might require digging deeper into *what* activities are truly driving them, not just if they happened.
