Metrics are useful tools, yet dangerous. Measuring the wrong thing can steer us in the wrong direction without us even noticing. And even the right metric can cause stagnation when we need to progress to the next challenge.
Inspired by the Agile Fluency™ Model, in his talk we discuss how the stage of fluency determines what types of metrics you should focus on. And how we need to change that focus as we progress to a different stage.
We’ll discuss how you can start with the basic metrics from Scrum or Kanban, such as velocity and cycle time. Then you can progress through to the type of delivery focused metrics from Continuous Delivery. Finally, we arrive at business focused metrics appropriate for product teams.
