Just wanted to say thanks to the Business of Diving Institute for the surveys.
While many of us grumble about the disparate quality of dive training, these surveys put into quantifiable and dispassionate terms some key indications of the health of certain providers in the dive industry.
Were I with an affected company in a leadership position, no doubt I’d be reaching out to solicit your support to help me improve my team. Unfortunately, I have a feeling some teams bury their heads in the sand and double down on pursuing new divers at the expense of long term profits.
Were I with the competition of the affected company, I’d be eating up the free analytics and incorporating measures in my business to guard against the same fate. In my previous career, we called this getting “free chicken”, meaning you didn’t have to kill the chicken, pluck its feathers, slaughter it or cook it….just sit down and enjoy the “free chicken”.
Anyways, the surveys are useful and help to correlate empirical observations to trends underpinned by statistics.
