Using metrics to remove bottlenecks and support your team

Using metrics to remove bottlenecks and support your team
October 22, 2020

Many developers are skeptical of metrics. There’s a common misconception that they’re a top-down management tool to be used (and potentially misused) by managers.

The reality is, engineering metrics are most valuable when they’re used by the entire team. They’re a powerful tool that can help developers at all levels work together to understand and eliminate the team’s points of friction.

Teams that use metrics to pinpoint and remove bottlenecks and slowdowns are ultimately more efficient, more productive, and happier.

As developers reap the benefits of increased efficiency – fewer frustrating roadblocks and more deployments – they’ll be motivated to find more opportunities to optimize processes.
