“How well is your delivery team doing?” That seems like a straightforward question, but it is more complicated that it might sound at first. Do we know what it means to “do well” or is it one of those things that is different to everyone?

In this session we will discuss how we can meaningfully measure outcomes and what we can learn from the measurements. We will also touch on common pitfalls and provide insight in how to avoid them.

You will walk away with information on how to design metrics for your own purposes, and get started with some concrete examples to measure productivity of a delivery team. In short, you will have all the information to answer “how well your team is doing” meaningfully.

Measuring outcomes… or how to get meaningful metrics from Gino Marckx

As the pace of change continues to increase, implementing strategy and changing direction is still a major hurdle for most organizations. Companies now need to be able to focus, align and engage their people around dynamic and measurable outcomes – becoming more agile and flexible in their outputs and process while helping people understand how they connect with and impact their companies future success.

In this session, we will be joined by Carlos Oliveira, a principal adviser at adaptiveX, a boutique product design, training and innovation consultancy.

Carlos will be leading us through Objectives and Key Results, a simple goal setting framework popularized by Google and used by leadership teams across Silicon Valley. Participants will be guided through an interactive exercise to help grasp the concept. Carlos will also share his experience implementing the framework in large enterprise organizations.
