Attack of the
Killer Metrics!"
"
When metrics
go bad…
20. agile42 | The Agile Coaching Company
www.agile42.com | All rights reserved. Copyright © 2007 - 2015.
Questions to ask about every metric
1. What decisions will be made based on this metric?
2. Is this the RIGHT thing to measure or an easy-to-measure
proxy?
3. What might be the unintended consequences of this
metric?
4. How could this metric be ‘gamed’?
5. What can we do to guard against unintended
consequences and ‘gaming’?
6. Is this a ‘management’ metric or a ‘team’ metric?

Compensating / Balancing Metrics
• What unintended consequences might happen if you
measure speed of delivery?
• What is a compensating metric to counteract it?
• Measure speed AND quality!
