The unique idea of The Burgess Method

Dear Colleagues

The idea that 'The Burgess Method' was something rather unique was put in play in the spring of 2010. For many years, I had been aware that my approach to the analysis of business problems resulted in quite good results, and similarly my analysis of issues in public policy also was giving far better results than the analysis of others. Others usually had better academic certification than I did, but the analysis that they had been taught was delivering way poorer results than the analysis that I had learned by combining academic training in three disparate disciplines ... engineering, economics and accountancy ... and experience in more than 50 different countries around the world.

I am engaged in collating the various writings that I have done over the years, so that my journey can help explain what is now being called 'The Burgess Method' and the associated system of TrueValueMetrics.
