This is a true short-take on flow metrics. I want it to be a reference piece for other works…
I attended a Professional Agile Leadership class with Ryan Ripley not that long ago. Ryan is a colleague and friend of mine and I always appreciate (and learn new stuff) when we get together. If you ever get the chance to attend a Ryan Ripley class, take it!!!
But I digress.
Ryan was VERY enthusiastic about flow metrics in the class. He has moved on from a velocity position and then from a #noestimates position, and now believes that flow metrics that the most relevancy and value in agile contexts.
