Measuring HD's success --- Thanks Ivy, and to JM too. When I was at IFRC I resisted attempts to score HD itself on some kind of success register, for the mark of success is best judged by the operational people for whom the HD was employed. There does, however, need to be a way of gauging that success so that at the very minimum lessons can be learned. It's good to see that so many operational leaders undertake this course, and this in itself is a mark of understanding how HD's value can be recognised.
