Love this part: It’s hard to go wrong if you have the attitude of “How can metrics help us to be successful” and not “How can we use the metrics to blame”.

The measures of success are chosen by us. That's why they're measures of success--they're there to help you be successful.

Great article Gregor!

Glad this resonated Robert! Right, the mentality behind them is really important. And using them to "blame" is just going to cause a LOT of issues and is really not productve. Instead, always be looking on how we can improve together as a team!

For smaller teams, any metric that revolves around adding value is what matters the most, and metrics like flow state and well being of people are secondary.

The path you’ve suggested is pretty straightforward and efficient to implement (these teams often consider that evaluating integration performance can be difficult and time-consuming, so they overlook it)
