4 Hours of Video Instruction Good metrics can help a team continuously improve and deliver consistently, while poor metrics can create a culture of fear; this video shows how to measure Agile teams effectively and help create an environment that maximizes value and learning. Overview Finding the right balance of metrics for your Agile teams can significantly help your continuous improvement efforts, forecasting, and risk management on software development projects. Instilling curiosity about performance data--instead of dreading arbitrary performance goals--is the best way to promote a culture of continuous improvement. This video will guide you through how best to incorporate metrics into your teams and organizations to diagnose issues, unearth trends, predict issues, and apply historical results to prescribe preventative actions. You will also learn multiple techniques and approaches for creating data visualizations that make your metric reporting clear and impactful.

Lesson descriptions Lesson 1: Why We Measure: This lesson discusses the underlying drivers for our data analytics and the importance of awareness and intent when measuring data. It's important to approach measuring data with the right intent. A common negative consequence of measuring data with the wrong intent is creating a culture of fear. Lesson 2: Defining a Metric: This lesson explores what is a good metric, how to use simple questions to best outline what to measure, and how to avoid some common pitfalls when working with data. Lesson 3: Descriptive Data Analytics: This lesson describes the first step to creating metrics, which is to collect and visualize historical data to see what's been happening with your team. Lesson 3 is a perfect example of the quote, "A picture maybe worth a thousand words but a good report is worth a thousand data points." Lesson 4: Diagnostic Data Analysis: This lesson explores the importance of understanding and uncovering why certain things happen with your team. Lesson 4 gives you behind-the-scenes kind of experience. Lesson 5: Predictive Data Analytics: This lesson shows about how to get a decent idea of what's likely to happen within your team since the future is unpredictable. The instructor gives tips and tricks of using empirical data and simple math to get ahead of potential issues that might arise going forward. Lesson 6: Prescriptive Data Analytics: This lesson shows how to analyze your data, identify trends therein, and make informed decisions for your team based on your analysis. Lesson 7: Creating a Balanced Dashboard: This lesson covers the importance of considering the full landscape of collected data, and how to find the best mix of connective metrics to inform your analysis. Lesson 8: Instilling a Culture of Continuous Improvement: This lesson shows how to use data safely while maintaining the freedom to experiment.
