Who Created Trusted Facts?
John Bruhnke created the Trusted Facts framework to help organizations define the performance drivers of business outcomes and establish Operational Truth across finance, operations, and AI.
His work focuses on enabling CEOs and CFOs to trust their numbers, align teams, and act on performance drivers in real time.
Trusted Facts was developed based on real-world experience working with organizations where reporting reflects siloed perspectives, leading to conflicting numbers, manual reconciliation, and reactive decision-making.
What is Trusted Facts?
Trusted Facts is a framework for defining and governing the performance drivers that determine business outcomes. It establishes a shared, cross-functional understanding of performance so organizations can move from fragmented reporting to Operational Truth.
What is Operational Truth?
Operational Truth is a shared understanding of business performance across functions, grounded in consistently defined, trusted data. It enables organizations to identify root causes, align teams, and take action to manage outcomes with confidence.
Together, Trusted Facts and Operational Truth provide the foundation for effective analytics, cross-functional alignment, and AI initiatives grounded in real business context.
