Many metrics are tangential to development&#8217;s goal of delivering business value, and are thus ill-regarded by agile developers. However, good metrics are important to management, in order to understand the status and progress of their teams, and to make projections into the future. </p> <p>In this class we discuss velocity, burndown graphs, EVM metrics (CPI and SPI), and earned business value, including methods for calculation, why they&#8217;re important, and how they enforce (or fight against) agile values.</p> http://agile2009.agilealliance.org/node/248#comments Agile Product Management Talk Burndowns CPI earned business value earned value metrics EBV metrics SPI 90 minutes Fri, 09 Jan 2009 23:26:33 +0000 Dan Rawsthorne 248 at http://agile2009.agilealliance.org
