Hello, I am working on an assignment that is due later tonight. It is a research assignment. I am supposed to look for specific, measurable data (statistics and numbers) related to a problem is affecting my organization. I am then directed to list it in the form of a chart or graph that presents the data so key decision-makers can see the "cost" of failing to address the problem.

My question is:

If my data consists of qualitative research and I do not know how to locate any quantitative data - how can I perform these duties? The problem I identified was not easily measurable. It may have been for a larger company that kept track of metrics - but this company is a start-up. They were more "it seems like and maybe..."

Thank you
