Evidence-Based Management Guide

0/5 ( ratings)

Over the last 15 years, software development organizations have been superficially described as value-generators. In fact, the increasingly common cost-cutting practice of outsourcing development to external organizations supports an opposite view. To some extent, the adoption of agile has supported this perception gap.

Organizational agility is often thought of as the practices used by individual teams and the techniques used to coordinate work across those teams. In some cases, focus is on improving practices without fully considering why those practices are being used in the first place. For instance, Scrum Teams monitor success by delivering potentially shippable Increments of work, but do those Increments contribute to the value of the overall organization?

Without measuring value, the success of any agile initiative is based on nothing more than intuition and assumption. Scrum.org’s Evidence-Based Management for Software Organizations approach measures value as evidence of organizational agility. This approach enables software organizations to make rational, fact-based decisions, elevating conversations from preferences and opinions to logic and insight.
