Expert insights
- Data isn’t just something in a database. It’s a constant stream of observation and feedback—just like how we choose fruit at a market.
- They’re subjective. A 13-point story might mean a month to one team, a week to another. There’s no universal meaning.
- As soon as story points become a competition, you’ve lost the plot.
- Where were we? What did we try? What happened next? That’s how you show teams their own progress—and their own potential.
- The chart says we didn’t deliver. It’s not personal—it’s just a starting point.
- When you can speak the dev team’s language—when you understand APIs or the tools they use—you earn their trust faster.
