I recently had the pleasure of doing a webinar with Rune Christensen from Scaled Agile, on the topic of Lean Portfolio Management and Metrics. Lean Portfolio Management is rapidly becoming one of those terms people want to talk about, up there with Value Stream Management. In my world, everyone seems to want to talk about metrics.

A winning portfolio strategy requires teams to agree on how they will measure success.  Projects that span more than a year often leave teams unsure if they're on the right path and driving toward out-of-date goals. A lean portfolio management approach based on shorter cadences and continuous delivery, with a focus on the objective evaluation of working systems, helps teams develop a continuous feedback loop that ensures they're always delivering customer value. 

Watch this final part of a three-part series for a conversation about identifying the right measurements for your organization's goals and how to capture the data you need. In this presentation, Rune Kølle Christensen, an SPCT and SAFe Strategic Advisor, along with me, a Jira Align Senior Solutions Engineer and author of Metrics Cookbook, discuss the best practices for how to glean insights from data to help drive better decision-making.

In this webinar you will learn:

• How to align on the top-priority objectives you need to meet

• The importance of leading indicators that tell you when you're on the right track

• Steps to determine the best metrics that help your team make decisions

• How to capture the right data so you can iterate with confidence
