"Measuring and Managing Performance in Organizations" should be a must-read for everyone tinkering with measuring, and how this has second order effects.
Too many companies focus on productivity and throughput instead of impact (of their features). So they produce bad features faster and faster.
- ian0 3y ago| So they produce bad features faster and faster. One thing thats often underestimated here is the impact a bad feature has over time. Not just when its released and fails, but also support, maintenance, tech debt, additional complexity in the product and the overhead this has on trying to improve things in the future.
