In many companies, numbers equal authority. Quantitative data is often viewed as more definitive than qualitative data, while its shortcomings are overlooked. Many of us have worked to marry quantitative with qualitative methods inside organizations to present a fuller view of the people for whom we develop.

In the wake of economic decline, women and men in the community of Ibere have engaged in struggles over female mobility in the borderland. Debates over women's movements across the international border are being shape…
