SessionFive002

Software by the Numbers
JeffMcKenna, DaveSmith, and SteveSmith

Description:
There are many ways to measure in a project, and many ways to measure them. Possible measurements include both product parameters, process parameters, and people. We need to measure so that we can plan, track, and adjust. Yet measurement programs often fail to achieve their intended effect, frequently create new problems, and leave teams and people feeling poorly used.

This session explores the pitfalls of "objectively" measuring creative work. We will explore the balance between measuring people and measuring outcomes.

Prerequisites None.
Minimum: 7
