#12. Evidence Based Management with Patricia Kong

Abstract:

When creating any sort of product, it's important to understand whether we are moving in the right direction. But how do we know that? How do we measure that? And what metrics do we use for that? Agile organizations know that frequent inspection of results limits risk and improves the ability to deliver value. Scrum.org created a complementary framework called Evidence-Based Management. Patricia Kong is here to talk about how we can use EBM to elevate our ability to deliver value.

What you’ll discover in this show:

-        You don’t need to apply the whole framework at once

-        The Evidence-Based Management framework provides a great set of metrics to start with

-        Four Key Value Areas help organizations and teams to gather quantifiable data in order to figure out what to do next
