The difference between a “job description” and impact – in one simple formula: x + y = z

The difference between a “job description” and impact – in one simple formula:
x + y = z
Many CVs only tell us what someone did.
But the much more interesting question is: What changed as a result?
A small formula can help make that clearer:
x – What was there before you came on board?
y – What specifically did you do, change or initiate?
z – What came out of it in the end?
Example:
“Outdated CRM system (x) → Introduction of a new tool including training for 12 employees (y) → +35% sales process speed (z)”
That has a very different impact from: “Implemented CRM system”.
📌 Anyone who wants to demonstrate impact must provide the context – and the result.
👉🏼 What is your favourite x+y=z from your own career?
