You see more sophisticated agile teams focusing a lot on things like cycle time — we are able to change things very fast. Of course this makes success a lot more complicated to measure. Success is no longer going according to plan because the plan changes every week. How can you base success on that? Instead you have to base success on things like business value and are we actually improving, .. are we more efficient as a whole …. It is the responsibility of everybody involved in the organization. It’s hard to point fingers around … It’s still true, if you measure success based on on time and on budget you’re missing the key point of what agile is about.
