The question that has been arising for me, is what amount of resources do you devote to engineering effectiveness in a relatively small engineering org (~25 people)?
It seems like the presented formula would say to not devote any resources, but there seems to be some good return on some effort put towards it. Right now, I've just considered it some percentage of my job to work on.
- JoshTriplett 11y agoIf you have only 25 people, you have few enough that you can reasonably discuss just about everything with the whole team. So, you can reasonably talk about what kind of "engineering effectiveness" work you need, and its priority relative to the other tasks on your list. How much time you spend on it then depends on where the task falls on https://xkcd.com/1205/ https://xkcd.com/1205/ as well as how much time you can spare from your current workloads.
